This is a Vega Sicilia. Character. Defined aroma. Balanced flavors, almost rounded: sour, sweet, bitter. Plums? Once shallowed remains, slowly fading, inviting remembrances, of enjoyed moments and drinks with friends. Worth repeat.

Bouquet of cinnamon, anise, fig, and worn leather commingled herb-scented red and dark cherry. Rich yet gentle palate with silky texture. Soft elegant tannins coats the mouth like wearing baby cashmere.

This is a bit more advanced than I thought it would be at 10 years - not a complain.

100% Tempranillo, 2012 is the first vintage without Merlot.

Never had this wine before, it’s the second label of Vega Sicilia - its great. Cherry, vanilla, maybe a little coconut great acidity with some floral notes and a long smooth finish.

(17+/20) Деликатный и элегантный аромат розовых лепестков, спелых ягод вишни и клюквы, мякоти сливы с лёгкой ванильной нотой. Довольно тельное вино с умеренной кислотностью и интенсивными, сухими танинами. Длительное кофейно-ягодное послевкусие. Очень молодо, требует дальнейшей выдержки. #prowein2017
