Macán Clásico is the first Rioja from Vega-Sicilia.
Tempos Vega Sicilia and Compagnie Vinicole Baron Edmond de Rothschild have jointly owned modern facilities in the Rioja DOCa region since 2016.
This 100 % Tempranillo reveals the terroir's freshness, fruitiness, liveliness, and delicateness, which provides depth and complexity.


The grapes come from plots with alkaline sandyclay soils. We had to wait until October to harvest this more Atlantic-influenced vintage. It has a more elegant profile and is more fluid so we could push the extraction a bit further. We increased the impact of the new oak barrel by 10 % during ageing, looking to give the wine more depth and structure.


Macán Clásico 2018 is the purest expression of Rioja Tempranillo, having a fresher, subtler, and more elegant profile.
