About this wine

Único 2015 reflects a warm, generous vintage, with deep black and red fruit, cigar box, cedar, truffle, dried flowers and a distinct graphite-mineral edge. The palate is powerful yet finely structured, with layered fruit, firm but ultra-polished tannins and a very long, complex finish. As usual, it spends close to a decade between barrel and bottle before release, emerging as one of Spain’s most complete and age-worthy reds.

Vega Sicilia

Vega Sicilia is Spain’s most legendary estate, with Único and Valbuena among the world’s iconic age-worthy reds. Old-vine Tempranillo and Bordeaux varieties, long élevage in a mix of woods and patient bottle aging create wines of huge depth but remarkable elegance. The group now also includes projects like Alión, Pintia and Oremus, all sharing a meticulous, long-term vision.
