Vintage: 2019

Vega Sicilia Pintia 2019, is an exceptional red wine that captures the essence of the DO Toro region. The vineyard lies on the banks of the Duero River, where the extreme weather conditions and complex soils rich in pebbles shape the unique character of this wine. The 2019 vintage, crafted by winemaker Gonzalo Iturriaga, boasts an energetic, bold, and full-bodied profile yet remains silky on the palate.

In the glass, Pintia Wine 2019 unfurls a deep, dark ruby hue. Pintia is young and intense as the nose captivates with an aromatic spectrum of ripe blackberries and plums, interwoven with delicate hints of spices and an underlying cacao note. On the palate, this wine is robust and concentrated, featuring a texture reminiscent of pomegranate. The finish is lingering, leaving a profound and enduring impression.

The wine’s expression of its terroir is dynamic, reflecting the intensity and complexity of the region. The 2019 vintage benefited from the hot and dry growing season, which was balanced by timely rain just before harvest. This ensured the grapes were picked at their freshest, preserving their natural acidity and vibrant aromas. Vega Sicilia Pintia Wine 2019 is perfect for those seeking a bold and complex wine experience.

Also, Pintia 2017 is one of the successful vintages, showcasing intense aromas of ripe black fruits and spices, with a robust, full-bodied palate and refined tannins, reflecting the essence of the Toro region.

Aged in a mix of French and American oak barrels, with 15% in large containers to maintain its fruitiness, this wine manages to balance power and elegance. The tannins are fine-grained and well-integrated, giving the wine a silky yet robust texture. The oak influence is subtle, allowing the fresh fruit flavors to shine through.

Pintia 2019 has garnered significant acclaim, with Wine Advocate awarding it 94 points for its powerful, full-bodied nature and notes of grenadine and ripe berries, while James Suckling rated it 95 points, praising its ripe blackberries, tar, dark cherries, and dark spices. Described as exotic, spicy, and lush, the wine boasts fine-grained tannins that require patience, with Suckling recommending it to be enjoyed from 2026.

Pintia Wine 2019, a creation of the innovative and daring Vega Sicilia team, is a promising and successful addition to the winery’s portfolio. This wine is suitable for drinking now but can also be cellared for up to 15 years under optimal conditions. Serve it at 18 ºC / 64 ºF to enjoy its full potential.

Vega Sicilia continues to broaden the horizon of its wine-making project with Pintia wine, enabling the bold and innovative reinterpretation of the region’s culture. This wine is a beverage and a profound expression of its origin and the foundation of a new generation of Toro wines.

Critical Acclaim

WA 94
Wine Advocate
The wine released in 2024 is the 2019 Pintia, from a very dry year when they did a softer vinification and used some 15% stainless steel for the élevage to keep the fruit and freshness. It fermented in stainless steel and oak vats with indigenous yeasts. It's a powerful year; the wine has 15% alcohol and is round and full-bodied. It's a heady and ripe Pintia. They had to be careful with the harvest date, and they harvested early and quite quickly. Even though the wine is ripe and heady, with notes of grenadine and small ripe berries, it's also exotic and spicy, quite showy, lush and full-bodied, with 2019 tannins. It's a more powerful wine that is going to require patience.

James Suckling
Ripe blackberries, tar, dark cherries and dark spices. Fine cocoa powder, too. Rich and full-bodied on the palate with a saline smack to the middle. Very long and powerful but expressive and refined. A little richer and more powerful than 2018, but elegant and poised at the same time. Vertical, fine-grained tannins. Drink from 2026.
