Words cannot describe this wine - in a plastic cup for God’s sake - long story but in all seriousness I would buy all there is of this wine

Showing fully mature right now, lots of damp soil and dried red currants. 80/20 Tinto Fino/Cab Sauv. Enjoy now!

1989 Vega Sicilia Unico. Date night under Quarantine. Drank with Snake River Farms burgers. Decanted just before serving. Perfect. Soft tannins, sour cherry, Asian spices, cigar box, cedar on the nose. Balanced. Just beautiful. Drank perfectly.

Love older vintages of Unico & the 89 is a Rock Star! Red & black cherry fruit, tobacco, coffee, vanilla & spice. Elegant & silky texture.

1989 Vega Sicilia Unico Gran Reserva Ribera Del Duero Temperanillo blend. Drank at Reddwood for A&S' birthday lunch. Epic. This wine was amazing! Couldn't believe how young it tasted and how complex it was. This was a real treat.
