Unico Ribera del Duero DOCa 2010 - Vega Sicilia
Prices incl. VAT plus shipping costs
This red wine is one of the greatest wines in the world, with a deep crimson colour and an intense cherry-red hue. The Vega Sicilia Unico from Vega Sicilia is characterised by a powerful, wide and for this vintage unusual fruity bouquet of spicy berries and dark plums. This scent is accompanied by a little lavender, the characteristic freshness of the terroir and the classic ethereal notes of frankincense.
The concentrated, aromatically dense and opulent taste shows how good the decision to reduce yields was in 2000. The result is a complex, powerful and great wine with enormous potential, outstanding length and clearly structured tannins. It tastes delicious with roasted lamb, fine braised beef with forest mushrooms or wild poultry with berry compote.
