"The second wine in the Bordeaux sense is the Macán Clásico 2019, a more concentrated and powerful wine from a hotter, drier year that was saved by the 80 liters of rain in the first fortnight of September. It was fermented in stainless steel with 10% of their own yeast, and aged 22% in stainless steel and the rest in new and used oak barrels, mainly French but with around 5% American, and lasted 12 months. The wine has a moderate alcohol content of 14%, soft acidity, good freshness and balance. The year 2019 was dry and hot, and vinification was gentle to avoid overly pronounced tannins. The nose is ripe without excess and the oak is well integrated. The palate is juicy and round, with fine tannins and a velvety texture." (Wine Advocate 2023)

Very deep crimson. Very bright, toasty, intense fruit. Very lively and exciting. Some salinity. Very long. 2023-2030
James Suckling
Wine rated (2022 guide) 93/100
About the wine:
Rich, yet refined and layered nose unfurls aromas of dark plums, dried strawberries, olives, cocoa beans and savory Mediterranean spices. The medium- to full-bodied palate is framed by an abundance of powerful, fine-grained tannins that give it a grippy texture. Needs time. Drink after 2024.
