Product Description
Details

We are proud to present the 2019 vintage of the red wine Pintia.

The producer behind this Spanish red wine, the legendary Vega Sicilia winery, has definitely succeeded in bringing out the best qualities of the bold Tinta de Toro grape.

The grapes are sourced from two plots with very different soils, situated at 700 metres of altitude and planted with vines around 35 years years of age. The 2019 vintage was a hot and dry one.

The grapes were hand-harvested, meticulously selected, destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks and oak. After that, the wine Pintia 2019 was aged in French oak barrels, American oak barrels and stainless steel tanks (15%) for 12 months.

Bottled in April 2021, this Crianza red wine of Bodegas y Viñedos Pintia was clarified with egg whites and aged for about 36 months before hitting the market.

Decant this red wine from Toro 2 hours before drinking.

Nose

The nose of this varietal Tinta de Toro opens with a deeply balsamic and mineral background that sustains a well-defined layer of black fruit, cocoa and flowers, combined with nuances of sweet spices, leather, aromatic herbs and some earthy remembrances.

Palate

Smooth and well-balanced, the 2019 vintage of this wine from Bodega Pintia has remarkable depth and concentration. First-class acidity with a solid, imposing structure. Exuberant and luscious, in a way that becomes ever more engaging as the wine reveals its many nuances. Yummy tannins and long, mineral finish.

Our personal opinion

The impeccably crafted wine Pintia 2019 has a remarkable ageing potential. If you have the chance, we suggest that you store some bottles for a few years.

great vintage
Value
The 2017 vintage is by far the best I've tasted. They've finally learnt how to get the best out of this difficult variety. The wine has everything: intensity, freshness, depth and a sense of place.
