Toro, Spain
Comments
Pintia is one of the most important wines of the Toro region and one of the exciting projects led by the Alvarez family, owners of Vega Sicilia. Pintia is known for the way it combines power and expressiveness with restrained elegance. The wine captures the interesting character of the habitats in Toro and shows the local face of the tempranillo varietal. Always a rich bouquet, solid structure, great drinkability and great satisfaction.
The 2017 Pintia stands out for its intensity and depth, thanks to a particularly hot summer that influenced the concentration of fruit. This vintage offers expressive notes of blackberry and plum, with delicate touches of spice and earthiness. Strong tannin and lifted acidity balance each other perfectly, making this vintage capable of shining both now and after several years of aging.
