Macán Clásico is the second wine of Bodegas Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia. More approachable in its youth than Macán, it keeps all the philosophy and quality standards of both houses. A Rioja Tempranillo with a classic soul and a modern heart.
The blend of the 2020 and 2021 vintages allows the technical team to reach a balance that neither vintage could give alone. 2020 brings structure and concentration; 2021, freshness and aromatic elegance. The result is a wine that is very approachable from youth, with a complexity that is surprising in its price range.
Bright cherry red. A fresh, fruity nose: cherry, red fruit, rose petals, with touches of vanilla and well-integrated oak. A balanced, flowing and pleasant palate. Soft, well-polished tannins. Medium-long finish.
White meats, pasta, gourmet pizza, Iberian charcuterie, fresh and semi-cured cheeses. A wine for every day for those who won't give up quality.
15–16 °C · Ready to drink. Can be opened straight away.
Will keep until 2028–2030. At its best now.
Macán Clásico is the entry-level wine of the Rothschild–Vega Sicilia project in Rioja. More approachable and expressive from youth. Macán is more concentrated and has greater ageing potential. Macán Clásico: from €45, Macán: from €72.
