About Pintia

Pintia is one of the great wines of the D.O. Toro that starts life on the San Román de Hornija moors, Valladolid, an area of boulder soils formed by deposits from the Duero River. It is made by the Pintia winery, which belongs to the outstanding Tempos Vega Sicilia wine group.

Pintia is a single-variety Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) wine from plots with an average age of 40 years that are harvested manually. The harvest is transported in 12 kilo boxes and kept in a cold chamber in the winery for 12 hours to preserve the fruity intensity of the grapes.

As well as the selection that happens in the vineyard, the clusters also go through a double selection process in the winery: the first is to discard the clusters that seemed fine in the vineyard but are not, and the second purifies the berries by removing the defective ones found in good clusters. Before fermentation, cold maceration takes place in oak vats for 5 days, and malolactic fermentation also takes place in wood. 70% of the resulting wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels and the remaining 30% in American oak barrels.

The Pintia winery was set up in 2006, after the successful creation of Alión, a winery that also belongs to the Tempos Vega Sicilia group. It is a modern facility that is as elegant as it can be in an area like Toro, which is usually more rustic.

Like Alión, Pintia is a unique wine, as it is the only one made in the winery, which guarantees that it will always be the best wine produced in the natural conditions offered by this privileged terroir.

Pintia is a wine of great intensity, a faithful reflection of the character of the terroir and with the seal of elegance and distinction of the Tempos Vega Sicilia family.

2012 The 2012 vintage
2010 Pintia has a very elegant passage on the palate. Ripe red fruit, compote, blueberry and blackberry. A very persistent finish.

Cherry colour with a purple trim.

On the nose the wine is complex and powerful. Blueberries, strawberries and blackberries. With a presence of barrel notes.
2008 In the palate we find a red wine with a powerful attack and a mid palate full of abundant notes of fruit and with more toasted aromas than in the nose. It is very well structured. A medium-bodied wine with a good, very integrated acidity and fine and ripe tannins. Long and very persistent finish with notes of fruit and spices at retro-olfaction.

Dark cherry colour with violet nuances. Very bright, with dense quite coloured slow-falling tears.

A high intensity wine with fleshy notes of ripe black fruit released moderately. Its spicy notes, its subtle and elegant toasted and roasted aromas and its refreshing balsamic hints round out this balanced and highly harmonious nose.
