Valbuena 5º is the purest expression of red wine at Vega Sicilia, aged for five years between wood and bottle, which gives the wine its name: Valbuena 5º.
This vintage was drier than previous ones, and that was reflected in the grape tasting at the beginning of September.
The grapes were very healthy and thanks to the rains that fell at this time, the skins ripened well.
Our obsession was to find that point of freshness without falling into over-ripening.
During fermentation we took care to perform a gentle extraction.
Of course, we adapt the aging process by aging part of the wine in vats during the first year to seek more tension in the wines.
Vintage where we gave less weight to American oak and more to French oak, especially freshly roasted oak.
In the second year of aging, the winemakers worked on that complexity of nuances and above all the elegance in texture.
Valbuena 5º is both succulent and powerful, tense and delicate.
It is expressive, elegant, cheerful, profound; it is a fascinating wine.
