PINTIA – The talent of rebellion
The independent character of the Vega Sicilia family. Pintia is born with a young, intense and revolutionary spirit.
Proud of his origin, he knew how to reinterpret the Vega Sicilia culture in a daring, courageous and innovative way, leading the appearance of a new generation of Toro wines.
As in all TEMPOS Vega Sicilia wines, the harvest is carried out manually in 12 kg boxes and the grapes, once placed in the cellar, pass through a cold room for 12 hours in order to preserve their fruity intensity.
In addition to the selection made in the vineyard, a double selection in the cellar is made. The first eliminates the clusters that may have been lost from the field and the second focuses on the defective berries that are on the optimal clusters. Maceration is carried out cold, for 5 days before fermentation, in oak barrels.
Malolactic fermentation is carried out in 100% wood. Then the wine was aged in French and American oak for 12 months.
These are wines of great intensity in color and depth, a bigarreau red tone with cardinal touches. The bouquet is broad, very clean, expressive and elegant, great fruity intensity protected by subtle and high quality wood. On the palate, it offers a great structure, a good tannic presence and a very pleasant, fresh and persistent mid palate. Floral memories in the aftertaste.
