Macán 2019 Magnum
Descripción
Macán es una mirada moderna y muy personal a los vinos de alta expresión y máxima calidad de la D.O. Ca. Rioja. Es una apuesta por la finura, la elegancia, la complejidad y la potencia, y constituye el estandarte de Bodegas Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia, el proyecto iniciado por Tempos Vega Sicilia y la Compañía Vinícola Edmond de Rothschild en 2004. 2009 fue la primera añada lanzada al mercado y este Macán 2019 es una cosecha corpulenta, jugosa, firme, un tanto tímida pero con mucho potencial para desarrollar. Aquí en formato de 1,5 litros.

Opinión de los críticos
The bodega's Gran Vino - or Grand Vin if you’re French - is sourced from 100 hectares in the villages of Ábalos, Elvillar, Labastida, Navaridas and San Vicente de la Sonsierra. Firm, powerful, structured and built to develop in bottle for a decade or more. Serious and compact, with damson, blackberry and coffee bean flavours, refreshing acidity and impressive palate length. 2025-35.
2019 was a more concentrated and powerful year that was warmer and drier; it was saved by the 80 liters of rain in the first half of September, and they tried to select the higher-altitude vineyards to have more freshness. They reduced the amount of new barrique (55%) and increased the use of foudre (45%) for the élevage of the 2019 Macán. It fermented in stainless steel with 10% of their own yeasts. It has a moderate 14% alcohol, mellow acidity and good freshness and balance. 2019 was a dry and warm year when they did a soft vinification to avoid harsh tannins. The wine is very powerful and dense, with a big structure and plenty of tannins. The oak is still noticeable in the aromatics. Give it some more time in bottle, and enjoy with powerful food. 87,377 bottles, 2,583 magnums and some larger formats produced. It was bottled in August 2021.
Attractive aromas of cloves with blackberries, blueberries, cedar and hints of chocolate. It’s full- to medium-bodied with fine yet chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Sleek and muscular. Needs three to five years to soften but already impressive. Try after 2026.

Redondo, para tomar desde ya y disfrutar pero igualmente con gran potencial de guarda. Puede parecer caro pero merece la pena.
