Vega Sicilia, Unico 1964
Ribera del Duero
Two slightly damaged capsules. Bin-soiled labels. Levels: two base of neck and four top-shoulder
Tasting note: This wine's graceful, spicy, cedary, blackcurrant-scented nose is reminiscent of a classic St.-Julien/Pauillac. Any evidence of new oak has been well-concealed by the wine's evolution. Medium to full-bodied, with an opulent texture, an attractive, sweet inner-core of ripe fruit, and a soft, lightly tannic finish, this fully mature, beautifully made Vega Sicilia admirably balances power and finesse. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 97, February 1995
