Macán 2011

This dry red wine from the D.O. Ca. Rioja is produced by the prestigious Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia winery. It offers a deep aromatic profile of forest fruits, vanilla, and spices, supported by firm tannins and a balanced acidity on the palate.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Tempranillo
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Ca. Rioja
  • Winery: Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia
  • Soil / Altitude: Foothills of Sierra Cantabria, north of the Ebro River
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: Oak barrel ageing

The vineyard

The Tempranillo grapes are sourced from selected vineyards situated at the foothills of the Sierra Cantabria, north of the Ebro River. These plots benefit from a mild climate with Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Continental influences, promoting a slow and balanced ripening.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

Following a meticulous selection of the grapes, the wine undergoes fermentation and subsequent ageing in oak barrels, which imparts a solid structure and complex aromatic nuances.

Why buy it

If you are looking for a refined wine with great cellaring potential that showcases the collaboration of two legendary winemaking families, this bottle is a superb addition to your cellar. Its balance and long finish make it perfect for special occasions. You can buy Macán 2011 online directly from our boutique to experience this modern expression of Rioja.

Deep ruby. Rich nose of blackberry, black cherry, vanilla, cured meat and sweet tobacco. Medium bodied with grainy tannins and an earthy midpalate of blackcurrant, licorice, coffee and saline that ends in a 30s finish. Intriguing that this feels more Bordeaux than Rioja, but perhaps not that surprising when noting that this is the brainchild of a collaboration between Rothschild and Vega Sicilia. 92 points

Long finish and well balanced wine with hints of vanilla and chocolate. Mdium + acidity and tannins with a touch of balsamic mouthfeel.

This is great. First impression is licorice, second are velvetly tannins, third is dark berries and dark fruit. Fourth imprssion is acidity. I bought this (and only) bottle some 8 years ago at the price of 28$. Wish I had bought a box…

Oak, vanilla, tobacco, smoke. On the palate luscious with dark cherry, blackberries, plum, raisins, chocolate, mocha, cinnamon, spice. This started off quite big and heavy but settled after 30min - 1 hour of decanting, showing great balance, elegance and length. 4.5/5 stars

Very opulent and lush Med+ nose of borderline jammy blackberry, black plum, blueberry, black pepper, hint of violet. Overall quite simple and in your face Med maybe med+ acid but the fruit is so dense and concentrated that I think the acid was slightly lacking. Velvety med tannins on the palate but the finish is classic, loosely knit tempranilllo chalk dust,, very rounded mouthfeel, hi alcohol, full body, long finish. Not my style but a very good wine

Black fruit jam on the nose, with vanilla and tobacco hints, and licorice flavors. A full body, intense Rioja with a long finish.

4.3 Beautiful and elegant Rioja, more balanced then the 6 year 2016 I have had previously. Superb nose of rich red fruit, cedar and slight vanilla. The med+ palate has elegant fruit, soft chalky tannin, a little creamy with very strong length. 100% Tempranillo, barrel fermented, aged in fine grain French oak & 2nd use, 50/50 and 10% American oak. From 92ha of chalky sandy soil.

Somehow I smell licorice. It's quite pronounced but tapers off after letting it breathe a while. Hints of chocolate as it hits your tongue the disperses quite pleasantly. Very pleasant tannins. I like this. Perhaps it was providential I left it to mature in the bottle for a while as I completely forgot that it was in my cellar!

4.4-4.5pt. Elegant and integrated 100% Tempranillo from Rioja. Opened in April 2021. Impressive smokey and meaty notes mixed with mellow red and black fruits. Excellent fruits intensity with well-balanced acidity. Nice tannins. Still developing but enough good to drink. Deep ruby color. Pronounced aroma intensity. Aromas of red cherry, black berry, black plum, cedar, milk, smoke, tobacco and meat. Dry. Medium acidity, high ripe tannins and high alcohol. Full body. Pronounced flavor intensity. Long finish.

Wonderful. Dry and full in the mouth. Leather and graphite atop a deep dark fruit base. Decanted and allowed to breathe for 4 hours...perhaps could have benefited from even more. Will be buying some further vintages for sure.

Blind under S$150 dinner. From the house of Vega Sicilia. Delicious vanilla, baked scone nose, lush dark cherry, tobacco, some leafiness gave this a deceivingly cab franc character

Robust and tannic gem here with a bit of age. Rich blackberry, cassis, plum with ribbons of dark cocoa, coffee and anise. Acid is powerful and extremely drying. Give it a good 6 hours to soften.
