The Story
Read the full story →
There are wines you open for occasions and wines that become the occasion. This is the latter.
Dark cherries, exotic spice, cigar box, violets on the nose. Silky and voluptuous on the palate with an iron minerality that gives it extraordinary presence. Five years in oak from 40 year old estate vines farmed with the same exacting standard Vega Sicilia has held since 1864. The 2015 is drinking beautifully now and will cellar through 2042. One of the great bottles of the collection. 100 pts Jeb Dunnuck.

“One of Spain’s best-known and beloved wines, this vintage, the 2015 Unico, like always, saw five years of aging in barrel and vat and another five years in bottle.”
