2011 Vega Sicilia 'Unico' (750ML)

98 James Suckling

Intensity and concentration mark this, with a deep core of hazelnuts, ripe blackberries, praline, chocolate orange and some iron. It’s full-bodied with very finely textured yet muscular tannins. Well framed. 95% tempranillo and 5% cabernet sauvignon. Drinkable now, but with a long future ahead.
