“Pintia 2021: a benchmark Toro red from Vega Sicilia's estate. 95 Parker, 94 Peñín. Full-bodied, oak-aged Tinta de Toro at its most elegant.”
Ask Sofíaarrow_forwardTechnical sheet
Nose
Expansive and pristine on the nose, with intense dark fruit — blackberry, black plum and cassis — framed by subtle, well-integrated oak that adds toasted and spice notes without overpowering the vibrant fruit character.
Palate
Full-bodied and structured on the palate, with ripe, polished tannins and a fresh, lively mouthfeel. Mid-palate concentration of dark fruit is balanced by bright acidity, giving the wine both grip and drinkability in equal measure.
Finish
Long, persistent finish with lingering floral nuances on the retro-nasal — a hallmark of elegance in a wine of this power. The aftertaste carries ripe fruit and fine spice for an extended, deeply satisfying close.
Pintia 2021 stands as one of the most compelling red wines to emerge from D.O. Toro in recent memory, crafted by Bodegas y Viñedos Pintia — the Toro outpost of the legendary Vega Sicilia family. Unlike many prestigious estates, Pintia produces just a single wine, a deliberate choice that guarantees every bottle delivers the very best fruit the vintage can offer. The 2021 has been singled out by leading critics as one of the finest releases in the winery's history, scoring 95 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate and 94 from Guía Peñín.
Made entirely from Tinta de Toro — the region's indigenous grape, a distinct biotype of Tempranillo shaped by centuries in this unforgiving plateau terroir — the wine is aged for 12 months in new oak barrels, 70% French and 30% American. The result is a structured, terroir-driven red that balances the grape's natural power with the polish and precision one would expect from a Vega Sicilia project.
The bouquet is expansive and beautifully clean, offering generous dark fruit intensity lifted by subtle, high-quality oak integration. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and firmly structured, with ripe but well-knit tannins and a fresh, food-friendly mouthfeel that carries through to a long, persistent finish. Floral nuances on the retro-nasal add a layer of elegance rarely found in wines of this weight.
Decant for at least one hour before serving at 16–18°C to allow this age-worthy red to fully reveal its complexity. It pairs beautifully with grilled red meats, game, aged sheep's cheese and slow-cooked legume dishes. Whether you buy Pintia red wine 2021 to enjoy now or to cellar for the next decade, this is a benchmark expression of Toro at its finest. Available online at Mercado 46 with European delivery.
