Tasting Note

The 2021 vintage stands out as a memorable achievement, offering a refined expression that is both fresh and profoundly deep. Macán 2021 matured for a total of 18 months in barrels, extra fine and fine grain French wood, the majority in new barrels and the rest in second-use barrels, and casks, followed by six months in oak vats, then has 28 months of bottle ageing before release.

Product Notes

Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia's Macán Macán Rioja wine exhibits an enchanting blend of the Rothschild's prestigious winemaking heritage and Vega Sicilia's profound understanding of the Rioja terroir. This Spanish red wine boasts an opulent palate of ripe red fruit, accented by subtle hints of spice and oak. Its ballet of flavours is complemented by an elegantly balanced acidity, while its silky tannins indicate soft refinement. Matured in French oak barrels, this Rioja wine imparts a long, lingering finish that reverberates with complexity. A true testament to the mastery of Rothschild & Vega Sicilia.
