This is a magnanimous wine and still in its youth. A non vintage blend of declared Gran Reserva vintages: 2008, 2010, and 2011. The color is still deep ruby with hits of garnet on the rim. The bouquet on the nose is strong and nuanced, layered; with notes of blackberry, cherry, plum, and additional notes of cigar box and old leather. The palate is even more extraordinary, it is very well integrated with fruit, tannins, and acidity. Velvety! Flavors of black currant, cherries and figs are savory and complimented by coffee, graphite and some anise. The finish is elegant, reminiscent of minerals. Cheers. — 6 days ago

Although not as prestigious as Unico, this Valbuena 5 was an absolute delight! Rich and balanced, it paired perfectly with fowl (pigeon). — 11 days ago

Second time drinking this wine and not completely convinced...for the money there are so many better wines out there. Very smooth and rounded with nothing really jumping out. Maybe one for the future 🤗 — 16 days ago

This is a “wow” type wine: incredibly aromatic and layered, complex, polished and a bit muscular. Consistent thru vintage. — 13 days ago

A robust muscular but nicely balanced style that showed well after all the older leaner wines we’d been sharing. Fung likes it a lot. — 4 days ago

Not as pop and pour ready as I remember but good vintage that would benefit from proper cellaring and aging. — a month ago
