Description
Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1968
Ribera del Duero
7 bts - Believed late release from the Bodega, slightly scuffed labels, wine comes from two different importers, 3 import labels overlap at bottom of main labels, 4 bts - u. 1bn, slightly scuffed labels, import labels overlap bottom edge of labels
70% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, Malbec and Albillo. A real whiff of Burgundy on the nose. Sweet, ripe and classy on the palate. Great finesse of texture. Lots of fruit and attack. Great chocolate at the finish. In 2013, overwhelmingly spicy, expressive and full of personality. The fruit now dominates the chocolate. In full flight and pure joy - seize it whenever you can.
