Background

Pintia, just like Valbuena and Alión, showcases the winery's dedication to capturing the unique character of their regions, from Ribera del Duero's intensity to Toro's boldness.

However, the crown jewel of Vega Sicilia's collection is Único, a complex blend transcending vintages. Each sip of this exceptional wine narrates a story of ripe grapes, meticulous craftsmanship, and patient aging in oak.

Today, Vega Sicilia's wines grace tables in over 80 countries, a testament to their global appeal. Yet, the winery remains firmly grounded in its Spanish roots. Family, tradition, and a relentless pursuit of quality continue to define every aspect of Vega Sicilia, ensuring that each bottle holds not just wine but a legacy waiting to be uncorked.

Production Process

The winery's meticulous production process begins with carefully hand-picked grapes, which undergo a 12-hour chilling period to preserve their vibrant fruity character. A meticulous double sorting process follows, ensuring that only the highest-quality grapes are used. Subsequently, cool maceration precedes fermentation in oak wood vats. Malolactic fermentation occurs in wooden containers, followed by a 12-month aging process in a blend of French and American oak.

Pairing Suggestions

Vega Sicilia's wines are well-suited to accompany a variety of dishes, from crispy duck and hearty game dishes to simple mushroom ragouts and flavorful beef stews or seasoned lamb legs.
