Unico is Vega Sicilia's flagship wine, a legendary red that every wine enthusiast should try at least once in their lifetime. Ideal for aging, it can age for up to 60 years beyond its harvest under optimal conditions. It displays "infinite" complexity in every sip; it is, after all, one of the longest-aged wines in the world. Its style is governed by three unchanging constants: elegance, firmness, and aging potential.

TASTING NOTES
Appearance
Intense cherry color with a garnet rim.
Nose
Dominated by aromas of candied fruit, along with notes of wood and tobacco, and a background of fine spices and chocolate.
Palate
Complex, spicy, with ripe tannins and a very long finish. In short, a wine with great personality, energetic, vibrant, fresh, powerful, and at the same time extremely elegant. "A monumental vintage," in the words of Luis Gutiérrez, critic for 'The Wine Advocate'.
