Vega Sicilia Unico 1990 Vega Sicilia
Unico is one of Spain's greatest wines and the flagship wine of Vega Sicilia. It is made from 95% Tinto Fino, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, which grow on 19 different terroirs, most of them stony and arid.
After alcoholic fermentation, Unico is traditionally aged for 10 months in 500l barrels, 19 months in new French oak barriques and then 8 months in used French barriques. Barrel ageing is completed by 20 months in large wooden barrels.
The final stage includes a further 3 years of bottle ageing. The Vega Sicilia Unico is characterised by a very intense, broad bouquet of ripe red fruit, lavender, spices, incense and ethereal notes. The sip is dense and powerful, aromatic and endowed with structured tannins and infinite length.
