Vega Sicilia, Unico Vintage:2011 vanilla and lemon curd that

vanilla and lemon curd that expand and linger

more volume and it's quite open and expressive

This has the legs to age well over the medium to even longer-term but should drink reasonably well young if desired

It shows new dimension with each swirl of the glass

Vega Sicilia, Unico Vintage:2011 vanilla and lemon curd thatThe great eternal Unico, with a touch of extra fruitiness and spiciness. Made after very long ageing in different oak vats and barrels, from selected plots (including 6% Cabernet Sauvignon) within Vega Sicilias estate, in the (rightly named) Unico method (72 months oak). Probably too young now, it should ideally not be opened in the next 10 years. Spains flagship, and very difficult for me to taste without passion.
