Vintage: 2017 Colour: Red Style: Dry

Description:

Valbuena 5º is the purest expression of Vega Sicilia's red wine. It is aged for five years between barrel and bottle, giving rise to the wine's name: Valbuena 5º.

The first year of ageing 10 % less new oak barrels were used and ageing took place in wooden casks during the second year, essential when it comes to developing the wine's harmony and tension.

Valbuena 5º 2019 is more mature, juicy, and voluptuous expression, with the focus always on harmony.
