VEGA SICILIA

Without any doubt, Vega Sicilia is, and has for long been, the most renowned winery in spain. It's reputations for quality and ,
individuality preceded that of Rioja, and it still holds a unique position in the Spanish hierarchy.

Vega Sicilia, Unico--Vintage 1970
Ribera del Duero
Both lots in original wooden case
Parcel: lots 407-408
"One of Vega Sicilia's distinctive practices is to release magnums of great vintages well after the wine's initial release. Magnums of the fabulous 1970 Unico Reserva Especial have just been released. This wine boasts an elegant, complex bouquet of cedar wood, blackberries, cherry liqueur, and vanilla. Opulently-textured, with fabulous unctuosity, vivaciousness, and vigor, superb ripeness, a full-bodied, super-concentrated attack as well as lush mid-palate and finish, this seamless classic can be drunk now, or cellared for two decades. This wine was brilliant from the 750 ml format, and is equally compelling from magnum." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, #136 (Aug 2001)
