Not very often do I post European wines. I do drink them from time to time but so much to explore in California! 1999 “Unico” brought by master sommelier Jay Fletchers to Cache Cache in Aspen. Richness and restraint with a deep almost coffee-like intensity.

Wine of the night! Magnum format. Such a complex and perfectly balanced wine. One of the great first growths of the world.

Incredibly intoxicating bouquet. A bit less on the palate but time will most likely solve that.
