Description

The current release of Vega Sicilia’s flagship offering, the 1991 Unico Reserva, will have to satisfy lovers of this great Spanish red until the 1994 is released in 2005. The 1991 is a gorgeous, deep ruby/purple-colored, remarkably youthful effort offering sweet vanilla notes intertwined with black currants, cherry liqueur, flowers, spice box, and tobacco leaves. Full-bodied and intense, with sweet tannin, outstanding density as well as purity, and a layered mouthfeel, this unevolved 1991 needs another 3-4 years of cellaring; it should last for 20-25 years. It’s a wine of great elegance as opposed to power. 95pts

Served at Decanter’s Vega vertical in London. The nose is still closed but within a couple of minutes there are hints of caramel and green pepper. It has a full-bodied palate with electrifying acidity and superb delineation with multi-layered ripe black cherries and plum with a black coffee note on the finish. This pup is very unresolved at the moment, but I suspect that it will probably surpass the 1990 in a few years time. Tasted November 2003. 95pts
