Description

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1964 

Ribera del Duero, DO 

u. t/ms, soiled and scuffed label, partially torn at bottom edge, slightly scuffed and creased capsule


65% Tinto Fino, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, Malbec and Albillo. Some earthy mushrooms on the nose, along with violets and aniseed. Lovely rich earth, opulent, almost 'Burgundian' taste. Lots of sweet, melting, violetty fruit. Elements of a great, minerally, top Côte de Nuits with extra aniseed! Thicker than the 1962 and much spicier, with an earthy finish. In 2013, more youthful on the nose. The aniseed is there, plus super-sweetness, just dissolving on the palate. A superb bottle - and pure Vega this time! Serena Sutcliffe, MW 


帶點泥土的菌香,紫羅蘭及八角。曼妙的香土氣息,有點布艮地風格。甜蜜繾綣加上紫羅蘭,礦物的果香及八角,有點像布艮地區的特級葡萄酒。比1964年的頂級佳釀還要豐厚及辛辣。帶泥土氣息的收結。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
