Vega Sicilia Único 1975

1975 has always been one of Vega Sicilia s great vintages, and this tasting confirmed that the 1975 Unico Reserva has the potential to be one of this historic winery s finest offerings. The wine s beautiful, saturated, dense ruby/purple color is followed by a tight but rich nose of black and red fruits, spices, and toasty oak. Deep, with huge body and massive flavor extraction, this wine combines awesome power and richness with considerable structure and delineation. It appears to be a legendary Vega Sicilia in the making. Although enjoyable to drink now, it will not reach its plateau of maturity for 10-15 years; it will last for 30 or more years.
