Lot Details

Description

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1968

Ribera del Duero, DO

u. 2bn, slightly bin-soiled labels


70% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, Malbec and Albillo. A real whiff of Burgundy on the nose. Sweet, ripe and classy on the palate. Great finesse of texture. Lots of fruit and attack. Great chocolate at the finish. In 2013, overwhelmingly spicy, expressive and full of personality. The fruit now dominates the chocolate. In full flight and pure joy - seize it whenever you can. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
