Valbuena 5º is the purest expression of red wine in Vega Sicilia. Its aging between wood and bottle lasts five years, thus giving the wine its name and giving it great range and aromatic richness. It represents the most modern line of the riverside winery, with a different style than Unico, the house's other great red.

TASTING NOTE
View
Cherry colored.
Nose
Spicy and mineral with toasted and fine cocoa aromas that, however, do not mask the notes of ripe black fruit.
Mouth
Full red, well structured with tension and power, but at the same time elegant and delicate, and a long and persistent finish.
