Bodegas Vega Sicilia Macán Clásico 2020 gigondas apricots and dry figsMacan was the name chosen for the wines produced by the joint venture of Bodegas Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia. The name refers to the traditional name of the people of Rioja Alta. After several trials, the partners decided on a style that is uniquely not traditional Rioja as they have decided to forego the use of American oak nor is it the modern "alt esprecion" neither. It is somewhere in between and best described as "Neo Classical,"
