Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1982

Ribera del Duero, DO

u. 2ts, damp-stained and slightly torn labels, 1 "Vin I Regals La Cava Vilanova" sticker adhered to label, scuffed capsules

65% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec and Merlot. Spiced plum glühwein on the nose. Great mineral quality - a Unico hallmark. Liquorice taste, with great irony backbone. Fantastic with Cantonese roast duck. In 2013, a really smoky nose leads to a great, meaty, ripe taste. Ends on a note of scented embers that I find riveting. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
