100% Tempranillo.<\/p>\n
Vega Sicilia is perhaps the most prestigious winery in Spain. Pintia, from Toro D.O. is an elegant, full bodied and intense expression of Tempranillo, with aromas and flavours of black fruit, spice and cedar. Grapes are sourced from vines planted at 700m altitude at a density of 1,000 vines per hectare.<\/p>\n
Pintia Vega Sicilia wine is matured for 12 months in new oak, approximately 70% French and 30% American oak barrels. Beautifully concentrated, ripe baked blackcurrant and plum fruit, cedar wood notes overlaid with spice and minerality. Very distinctive, smooth and round with good concentration of dark berry fruits. Great length and good tannins. Suitable for drinking now, but with ageing potential of up to 15 years if store correctly.<\/p>\n
Pintia Vega Sicilia is best served with roast suckling pig or milk-fed lamb from Castilla.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
