Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1980 (1 BT)

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1980

Ribera del Duero, DO

Good level, soiled and slightly scuffed label, capsule slightly scuffed and labelled on top

60% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec and Merlot. Slightly 'Burgundian' nose. Superbly scented. Very red fruit. Soft, American oak sweet taste, with sweet leather at the end. Just pure pleasure. In 2013, from magnum, both the 'Burgundian' aspect and the American oak come through again in exciting mode. So sweet and silky. Very magical wine. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

帶點布艮地的風格。芳香撲鼻。充盈的紅色水果及美國橡木桶的甜味。收結帶香皮革味。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
