Vega Sicilia Unico, Ribera del Duero 2016 En Primeur - Case of 3
Unico is a legendary wine, the Grand Vin which almost makes Valbuena a second wine, and 2016 marked the first vintage where Technical Director, Gonzalo Iturriaga de Juan, had full control of the whole vintage. Tempranillo with 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, this undergoes one of the longest ageing regimes of any table wine and as such is released when it is ready - when it is offering secondary and even tertiary elements. It is all about potential and longevity.
