VEGA SICILIA
Situated in Ribera del Duero, the estate has a history of producing wines that are definitively Spanish using Bordeaux techniques. The wines are a blend of primarily Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) with the balance comprised of Bordeaux varieties.
In 1982, the estate came under control of the Alvarez family. Since then, the vineyards have expanded and the bottling lines and winery modernized while the winemaking techniques remain classically Spanish in nature. A true example of their union of old-world and new-world features, the estate has a cooper’s workshop on the grounds but also has state-of-the-art mechanical and chemical control systems in place to ensure the integrity of the corks used during bottling.
“Unico” represents the heart and soul of Vega Sicilia. It is comprised of mostly Tempranillo, with the balance being more Cabernet Sauvignon than Merlot and Malbec, all from the oldest vines of the estate. Following fermentation, the wine remains in large wooden vats for up to two years before being transferred to new oak and then progressively older casks until bottling. In all, “Unico” will have aged a minimum of seven years in cask and bottle before release, taking on roasted characteristics and tannin from the wood. These wines represent the pinnacle of vintage Spanish winemaking.
