Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1965

Ribera del Duero, DO

Excellent level, label soiled with slight purple stain, coming loose at corner and slightly torn, remnants of clear plastic film on the glass; Excellent niveau, étiquette souillée avec une légère tache violette, se décollant au coin et légèrement déchirée, restes de film plastique transparent sur le verre

75% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and Albillo. Wonderful meaty, plummy nose. Incredibly scented. The sweetness of the scent increases in the glass. Full and grapey, with a balsamic taste and finish. So seamless. In 2013, very meaty and smoky on the nose, plus spices. Superb Christmas cake flavours on the palate, with unbelievable raisins, plums and currants. Stunning wine. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
