2018 Sei Solo Preludio

Sei Solo is the personal project of Javier Zaccagnini, former chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Ribera del Duero between 1992 and 1998. In 1999, together with Mariano Garcia, he founded the famous house Aalto, which is now regarded as one of the world's top houses.

Javier starts this new project in 2007. The Sei Solo is made exclusively with grapes from Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) with vines that are between 60 and 90 years old. The old vineyard, exclusively 'tino fino', is located in the small village of La Horra, in the heart of the famous Ribera del Duero region. La Horra is known for its wealth of unique old vineyards, including Pingus, the exclusive cult wine of Peter Sisseck. Javier has been making top wines there for several years, but only wanted to release them under his private label 'Sei Solo' as soon as the wines meet his high standards. In recent years, the little bit of fruit was sold to Aalto and went integrally into the top cuvée 'PS', because Javier was not yet satisfied. Now it's finally here! 2011 is the first official release of Sei Solo which also includes a 'second wine' called Preludio. In addition to being a great wine lover, Javier Zaccagnini is also devoted to classical music. His absolute favorite is Johan Sebastian Bach. As a tribute, he gives this exclusive wine the name 'Solo Sei', after the exceptional work of JS Bach. Sei Solo is a cycle of six violin works. It consists of three sonatas and three partitas. Sei Solo's label is in the handwriting of its master JS Bach. Only 1000 bottles of Sei Solo were made, of the Preludio 4000. Both wines are therefore only available in limited quantities.
