Benjamin De Rothschild & Vega Sicilia Rioja Macan 750ml

Benjamin De Rothschild & Vega Sicilia Rioja Macan 750ml

Vintage: 2017
Description: A famously difficult year in Rioja with frost and hail, as well as some botrytis. However Macán shows plenty of promise with dark damson fruit, very fine tannin and well managed oak. Definitely an encouraging progression from the first vintage (launched in 2009) with a much clearer expression of the terroir and more elegant oak. At 16 months, it spends four months longer in oak than Macán Clásico. The ageing in French oak is now divided between foudres and barriques. Drinking Window 2022 - 2029.
