Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1953
Ribera del Duero
u. 1bn, 1vts, purchased from Christie's 'Fine and Rare Wines' in New York on 10th December 2010, Lot 70, 1 label slightly bin soiled, 1 bottle believed recent release, corroded capsules, capsules cut to reveal fully branded corks,1 cork slightly sunken
80% Tinto Fino, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, Malbec and Albillo. Absolutely stunning. A mouthful of sweet plums and damsons. Utterly riveting in its dimensions. Ravishingly sensual. Caresses the palate with sweet, rich fruit. Sweet, plummy finish - a miraculous wine. In 2014, this is still as marvellous. Sweetness and smoke with real vanillin notes. Seemingly unchanging in its beauty. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
