Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1981 (3 BT)

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1981

Ribera del Duero, DO

Previously purchased from Sotheby's Hong Kong " Wines Direct From Vega Sicilia" on 3 April 2013, bottled signed by Pablo Álvarez

65% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec and Merlot. A very small vintage. Glorious , sweet, ripe nose, with a touch of violets. Lovely coffee bean taste. Heavenly, sweet, supple tannins. Mouth-watering wine, intense, delicious, aromatic and fascinating. In 2014, sweet violets on the nose, so winning and seductive. This is just vocabulary-defying, but I shall try - cassis, coffee and black truffles. Liquid paradise. All this, plus extra freshness, from magnum. Serena Sutcliffe, MW 

65% Tinto Fino、20%卡本納蘇維翁、15% Malbec和梅樂。當年產量不高。壯麗健碩，香甜成熟，伴隨絲絲紫色水果香。帶有討喜的咖啡豆味。甜美柔韌的丹寧妙不可言。此酒令人滿口生津，澎湃熾烈，芳香美味，美不勝收。2014年品嚐，香甜的紫色水果香撲鼻而來，睥睨同儕，綽約迷人。簡直難以用文字形容，但我還是努力嘗試一下：滿是黑加崙子、咖啡和黑松露氣息。美好得彷彿令人置身天堂。除此之外，1.5公升裝還透出一股清新氣息。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
