Description

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1969
Ribera del Duero
Excellent colour and clarity, labels slightly bin soiled and torn at base, 'SAM' handwritten on top right of the labels

85% Tinto Fino, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, Malbec and Albillo. In 2013, that sweet aniseed, Unico nose. Very gummy, liquorice taste, with mint showing up too. Such teeth-coating glycerol and yet with such elegance at the same time. It ends with a fresh, sweet flourish of immense beauty, signing off the miraculous decade of the Sixties in splendid style. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
