This dark violet-colored wine has aromas of cranberry, milk chocolate and rose. Milk chocolate transitions to the tastebuds and is accompanied by black cherry, blackberry, violet and orange-zest flavors. A layer of velvety tannins lingers on the tongue and gums.
Rich, but refined and layered nose that unwinds dark plums, dried strawberries, olives, cocoa beans and some savory Mediterranean spices. Medium-to full-bodied palate, framed by an abundance of powerful, fine-grained tannins that give a grippy texture.
The second wine in the Bordeaux sense is the 2019 Macán Clásico, a more concentrated and powerful wine cropped from a warmer and drier year that was saved by the 80 liters of rain in the first half of September. It fermented in stainless steel with 10% of their own yeasts, and the élevage was 22% in stainless steel and the rest in new and used oak barrels, mostly French but with around 5% of them American, and lasted 12 months. It has a moderate 14% alcohol, mellow acidity and good freshness and balance. 2019 was a dry and warm year when they did a soft vinification to avoid harsh tannins. The nose is ripe without excess, and the oak is neatly integrated. The palate is juicy and round, with fine tannins and a velvety texture.
Rating:93+
A balanced, medium-bodied red, with a pleasing, plush texture, this shows a well-knit range of ripe cherry and black raspberry, red licorice, dried thyme and hints of espresso and loamy earth. Features fine-grained tannins, which emerge to firm the spiced finish.
