$124.99

Excl. tax

Macán is a modern and very personal take on the premium quality signature wines of the Rioja DOCa region. It is a commitment to finesse, elegance, complexity, and potency. It is also the standard bearer for Bodegas Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia.

"Minerally on the nose, with hints of iron and tarry smoke underscoring a lovely range of crushed black cherry and wild strawberry fruit, revealing accents of dried mint, espresso and bitter almond. Firm and fresh, this tightly meshed version evolves in the glass and lingers on the lightly spiced finish." -Wine Spectator

Macán and Macán Clásico are the joint vision that two great names of the wine world, Rothschild and Vega Sicilia, have of La Rioja. They are very elegant wines, where the harmony of their aromas and flavours show the authenticity of the land from where they come and its capacity to produce great wines.

Macán Clásico is very approachable and expressive, more pleasant and pleasurable when drunk with a marked character of the land from which it comes and a simplicity that makes it very attractive.
