Macan Rioja 2012 750mL

Macán is a modern and very personal take on highly expressive and top-quality wines of the DOCa Rioja. It is all about fineness, elegance, complexity and power, and embodies the standard of Bodegas Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia. It is made exclusively with Tempranillo grapes, from a careful selection made from parcels situated on high terraces with poor and gravelly soils, with little evolution and clay-lime nature.

Grape Varietals:

Tempranillo

95 Points - Wine & Spirits Magazine

94 Points - Wine Enthusiast, January 2016. "This young, massive Rioja smells of raspberry, plum, char and tar. The mouthfeel is chunky, rich and deep, with manageable tannins. Blackberry, mocha, char, clove and chocolate flavors announce generous oak, while the finish is spicy, peppery, toasty and ripe. Drink 2018–2034."
