About the Winery

Macán Reserva was born from the union of two world-renowned winemakers: Tempos Vega Sicilia and Baron Philippe de Rothschild, who in 2004 decided to combine their expertise to reinterpret the grandeur of Rioja from a contemporary and global perspective.

The project took shape in San Vicente de la Sonsierra (Rioja Alavesa), a historic enclave with limestone soils and a privileged climate for Tempranillo, the region's flagship variety. The winery, opened in 2017, combines cutting-edge technology with architecture designed to blend into the Rioja landscape and respect the environment.

Macán Reserva is the result of a meticulous selection of old vineyards and a precise production process, with extended aging in French oak that provides complexity, elegance, and an unmistakable identity.

The winery's philosophy focuses on combining Rioja tradition with Bordeaux excellence, offering wines that stand out for their finesse, balance, and aging potential, positioning Macán as one of the most prestigious and exclusive Rioja projects of the 21st century.

What flavor awaits me?

Appearance
Deep cherry red color with bright garnet reflections, a deep robe, and a defined rim that reflects its youth and long development potential.

Nose
Great aromatic intensity, dominated by ripe black fruits (plum, blackberry, cassis) accompanied by an elegant array of sweet spices, cocoa, coffee, and blond tobacco, the result of its aging in French oak. Balsamic and mineral notes emerge, providing freshness and complexity.

Palate
Silky and enveloping entry, with polished, high-quality tannins. It presents a firm structure perfectly balanced with acidity, which sustains a long and harmonious mid-palate. The flavors of ripe fruit, spices, and roasted notes integrate into an elegant and very long finish.

Finish
Long, deep, and refined, with hints of licorice, fine wood, and a mineral echo that confirms its origin in the limestone soils of Rioja Alavesa.
