Description

There's not a lot more that can be said about this wine the fabled Vega Sicilia Unico. It is a unique wine and one of the greatest Spanish classics. Hailing from Ribera del Duero, this is the reference wine for this Bodega think of it as a Spanish First Growth. With ridiculously low yields and great attention to detail in the vineyard and winery, this is one of the world's great wines.

GRAPE VARIETIES:
93% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), 7% Cabernet Sauvignon

TASTING NOTE:
Deep ruby colour with intense cherry rim. The nose is extensive and powerful showing an unusual fruity and pure Unico due to a powerful vintage. Aromas range from plum to all types of seasoned fruits. The palate is great and opulent with a precise tannic structure. Complex and persistent. It nevertheless has the balance and structure to continue evolving for another 5-10 years. In strong vintages Vega Sicilia drinks well at age 50 and I would expect the same of the 2000.
