Product Description
Details
We are proud to present the 2020 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 2020 vintage was a hot and dry one, which produced bold and powerful wines..
The grapes were hand-harvested, meticulously selected, destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks and oak vats.
After that, the wine Pintia 2020 was aged in French oak barrels, American oak barrels, stainless steel tanks and clay amphorae for 12 months.
Bottled in August 2022, this Crianza red wine of Bodegas y Viñedos Pintia was clarified with egg whites and aged for 30 months minimum before hitting the market.
Decant this red wine from Toro 2 hours before drinking.

great vintage
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.
