The Benjamin de Rothschild - Vega Sicilia Vineyard, located in the prestigious region of Rioja in Spain, is a true gem of the Spanish wine world. This vineyard is an exceptional collaboration between the Rothschild family, known for their love of wine and ownership of Château Lafite in France, and Vega Sicilia, one of Spain's most iconic wine producers. Together, they have created a vineyard that expresses the best of both worlds: the refinement and elegance of Rothschild wines, and the intensity and complex character of Vega Sicilia's. Their collaboration is also apparent in the care given to the vine and wine-making, demonstrating great mastery and an ongoing quest for perfection. The dominant variety in their plantations is Tempranillo, the flagship grape of Rioja, which gives their wines a deep and richly flavoured character. Combined with the exceptional terroir of Rioja, the wines they produce have a unique signature, marked by a beautiful balance between freshness and complexity. The vineyards are located on high-altitude slopes, bounded by the Ebro River, thus giving the grapes ideal ripening conditions. The combination of the Mediterranean climate, characterized by warm summers and mild winters, and clay-limestone soils gives the wines an aromatic intensity and complexity that wonderfully unfolds across their range. The Benjamin de Rothschild - Vega Sicilia Vineyard produces wines of exceptional quality, preserving the viticultural heritage of Rioja while adding a touch of French elegance.
