Vega Sicilia Unico 2014

Product description

The 2014 Vega Sicilia Unico is a refined, elegant wine from Spain’s Ribera del Duero region, made with 94% Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon. This vintage stands out for its balance, showcasing the finesse of a cooler, so-called Atlantic year. Despite the challenges of the climate, it benefits from ideal maturation conditions, resulting in a wine that is both fresh and complex.

Colour: Dark cherry with garnet edges, hinting at its depth and youth.

Aroma: Floral notes of wild rose and lily mix with herbs, licorice, cedar, and subtle hints of orange peel and spices, contributing to a sophisticated bouquet.

Palate: The wine offers layers of bramble fruit, black cherry, Asian spices, and tobacco, framed by silky tannins. A fresh, chalky finish adds vibrancy to its otherwise concentrated profile.

Body: Full-bodied with an elegant structure, combining power with subtlety, as is typical for Unico's style.

Finish: Long and polished, with persistent flavors that evolve gracefully over time.

Accolades: Critics have rated the 2014 Unico very highly, with scores up to 98 points from The Wine Advocate and other reviewers, commending its potential to age gracefully through 2040 and beyond.

This wine exemplifies Vega Sicilia’s mastery of long aging processes, spending about 10 years in both barrels and bottle before release. It reflects both the estate’s meticulous craftsmanship and the unique terroir of Ribera del Duero, making it a prized addition to any collection.
