D.O. Ribera del Duero
Vega Sicilia Valbuena 5° 2019
- Origin of the Vineyard
Valbuena 5º 2019 originates from the iconic 210-hectare Vega Sicilia estate, located between 720 and 930 meters above sea level. The vines, with an average age of 35 years, are planted at a density of 2,222 vines per hectare, encouraging a natural balance between vigor and concentration. - Harvest and Selection
Manual harvest in 12 kg boxes between September 21 and October 5, with a controlled yield of 3,800 kg/ha (equivalent to 26.6 hl/ha), ensuring high quality in each bunch. - Vinification and Aging
Alcoholic fermentation was carried out in stainless steel vats, followed by controlled malolactic fermentation in tanks. Aging—core to the Valbuena style—extends over five years in a combination of new and used French and American oak barrels (225 L) and 20,000-liter wooden vats. This progressive refining system tames the power and preserves freshness. - Limited Edition
Total production: 186,286 Bordeaux bottles, 5,673 Magnums, 400 Double Magnums, 35 Imperials, and 5 Salmanazars. - Cellaring Potential
Suitable for immediate enjoyment, but with aging potential of up to 25 years under optimal storage conditions (12–14 ºC and 64% relative humidity).
