Critic reviews
"The 2020 Macán includes new plots and Garnacha and Graciano grapes, and they harvested a little earlier. They select their best plots in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, and the grapes were cooled down for 24 hours before fermenting in oak vats with part of autochthonous yeasts. It matured 50% in new French oak barrels and 4,000-liter oak foudres for 16 months. The bottles are kept for three years before they're released. There were 98,835 bottles, 3,557 magnums and some larger formats produced. It was bottled in August 2022."

"Black plums, currants, black beans and touches of sandalwood, ash and cigar box on the nose. Juicy and full-bodied, with really fine-grained tannins and a long, linear finish that lingers. Really poised. Needs at least two more years to come around."

"Cedar, clove and nutmeg melt over a fruity undertone. Chalky tannins and a very fine palate. It is classicism well understood because the barrel is in the foreground but does not overpower it. Smooth and silky on the palate. It is a wine that has not yet produced any tertiary aromas/flavours, so its potential for evolution is very high. A serious wine with that fruit in the background. It is a lighter vintage than Macán's usual trend, but it is very well defined."
