Vega Sicilia Unico 2004
Descripción
Único es la gran referencia de Vega Sicilia. Un vino que procede de las viñas más viejas de la propiedad y que se encuentra entre los vinos "leyenda" que todo aficionado debería probar al menos una vez en su vida. Ideal para su guarda, 2004 fue una añada anormalmente generosa para la rigurosidad de la región.

Opinión de los críticos
"Moving on to the big guns, the 2004 Unico is truly spectacular, in line with the 1970 and 1994. It’s a blend of 87% Tempranillo and 13% Cabernet Sauvignon. Unico has a unique long aging, in the case of the 2004, 15 months in 20,000-liter vats, 25 month in new barrels, 17 months in used barrels and a further 26 months in the big oak vats. It has complex notes of tobacco, cedar wood and blackberries, and shows very good balance between power and elegance as well as perfect ripeness. It has a similar profile to the 1994, but there’s ten years difference in experience and technical knowledge. There is nuance; there is detail, filigree, balance, harmony and complexity. There is a fine texture. In short, it is a great, world-class wine, a superb vintage for Unico. 87,500 bottles, 2,229 magnums, 150 double magnums and 5 Imperials were filled with this extraordinary wine. This is approachable now, but it’s a shame to drink so soon. It will age for a very long time, as it has the balance and harmony to do so, and it will develop more complexity with time. Drink 2016-2029. But if the single harvest Unico is fantastic, the multi-vintage blend could be even better as it also plays with the benefit of extra aging time".

Le ha pasado lo que a otras añadas, que inicialmente parecían normalitas y luego han resultado INCREIBLES. Un must have.
No emociona
Fantástico sabor
Excepcional, perfectamente equilibrado, sobran las palabras
Un gran vino, delicioso en boca, final muy largo y complejo. Crece exponencialmente a lo largo del proceso de decantado. Merece la pena.
Sublime
