Reviews & Scores
The 1987 Único contains not only 10% Cabernet Sauvignon but also 10% between Merlot and Malbec, cropped from a somewhat challenging vintage (but not as challenging as in some places in France). The wine reached 14% alcohol and is delicate and harmonious with good acidity that lifts it up. It has some ethereal qualities and comes through as elegant rather than powerful. 2,030 magnums produced. Artwork by Manuel Losada.
WA94January 2023
Clearly more mature, with its paler garnet colour. More developed in the mouth with tomato and red cherry preserves. Very long and fresh finish, even if no longer as complete as others. Vega Sicilia says 'it demonstrates the elegance of old wines,' and it does. Cold, rainy winter, before a soft and rainy spring; a ‘very difficult harvest with risk’. 18 months in large wooden tanks, then decanted into old and progressively older casks over the course of 24 months, and used casks for the next 60 months before ageing in bottle.
DC93September 2022
This has an aromatic nose of dried roses, chocolate orange, plums, peaches and cloves. It’s soft and fine on the palate, with tangy acidity and fine tannins. Delicious fruit and floral character. Aging nicely. 80% tempranillo, 15% cabernet sauvignon and 5% merlot and malbec.
