Pintia 2010

Vega Sicilia

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 95.0

When Vega Sicilia became part of the Álvarez family’s life in 1982, the foundations were laid for TEMPOS Vega Sicilia. It has constantly and steadily grown since then, involving the introduction of wines produced in different wine-making areas, reaching out to new consumers around the world and laying the foundations for a promising and highly successful future. Wine thus became the cornerstone of the family’s new business project.

Pintia was created in the Toro region further down the Duero River. The Álvarez family’s latest project on the banks of the Duero River has enabled the family to broaden the horizon of its wine-making project. Pintia is young, intense and ground-breaking in nature. Proud of its origin, it has managed to reinterpret the Vega Sicilia culture in an innovative, brave and daring manner, at the head of the emergence of a new generation of Toro wines.

‘This is in great shape at 10 years: a Toro that you don’t have to wait 15 years before it’s at its best’, says Gonzalo Iturriaga, technical director of winemaking. The wine is densely coloured with balsamic, red plum notes and a line of oak. In the mouth it’s vividly fresh, developing a dense, mellow core. Around it there’s a fine line of supple, mature tannins, giving a refreshing savoury finish. All new oak, 75% French, 25% American.
