Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia
Unico Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend
This is an immaculate bottle. Fresh and intense it could be 30 years old instead of as old as me! Dark plum, black pepper, iodine, deep k minerality. This is spectacular. Long and pure and delicious.

May 10th, 2023Deep fruit. Plum and tobacco. Soft and rounded. Gorgeous velvety texture and really long. This is in great shape still.

Nov 16th, 2022A flat-out stunning nose. Plum, black cherry, a hint of menthol, pine needles, graphite, earth, very smooth and rounded on the palate. Harmonious. Cool and focused with iron and hints if tobacco. Still quite young but definitely at a sweet spot right now, and probably for much longer

Oct 31st, 2022From a nice old-looking bottle with a fill into the neck. Reddish tawny color. Bright fruit-forward nose. Notes of red fruit, spice, red flowers, mint and some moist forest earth. Great aromatics. Decent fruit remaining with nicely integrated tannins and great, balanced structure. This improved over the evening... quiet at first (despite 4+ hours of decanter time), but showed its stuff later on.
