Vega Sicilia Unico


1995 (OWC12) 2004
Wine Advocate 97: “The 1995 Unico is a worthy successor to Wine Advocate 97: “Moving on to the big guns, the 2004 Unico is
the profound 1994 (awarded a score of 98+ in Issue #159). truly spectacular, in line with the 1970 and 1994. It’s a blend of
Opaque purple in color, it has aromatic complexity which nearly 87% Tempranillo and 13% Cabernet Sauvignon. Unico has a unique
defies words. There are notes of earth, licorice, hard wood long aging, in the case of the 2004, 15 months in 20,000-liter vats,
charcoal, and black currants. Full-bodied, and powerful, the 25 month in new barrels, 17 months in used barrels and a further
wine has beautiful balance with a multi-dimensional character 26 months in the big oak vats. It has complex notes of tobacco,
and the structure to last for 25-40 years. The 1960 and the cedar wood and blackberries, and shows very good balance
1965, drunk within the last several months, appear to have between power and elegance as well as perfect ripeness… Drink
many more years ahead.” -- Jay S Miller, Feb 2007 2016-2029.” -- Luis Gutierrez, Aug 2014

Vega Sicilia Unico 1994 (OWC 3)

Wine Advocate 93: “The 1994 Unico is a blend of 80% Tinto Fino, 13%
Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot (presumably 2% is unknown varieties)
that was picked from September 28. It is very intense with notes of
raspberry, wild strawberry and mulberry with sensational minerality and
vigor. There is a Margaux-like florality to the 1994 that blossom with
aeration. The palate is rounded and supple on the entry with great weight
and backbone. There is real substance here, similar to the 1996. It expands
in the mouth with ravishing notes of blackberry, strawberry, citrus lemon,
orange peel and a touch of cedar. There is enormous weight on the finish, a
behemoth of a Unico. This is very potent, but it still requires several years in
bottle. 96,280 bottles produced. Drink 2019-2040.” -- Neal Martin, Aug 2012

ALION –Unlike Vega Sicilia, where vinification is a hybrid of traditional and modern techniques, Alion is
made in the modern Bordeaux cru classe tyle, using state-of-the-art equipment and lots of new oak. Pablo
Alvarez, managing director of Vega Sicilia, calls Alion “a wine somewhere between a Ribera del Duero and
a Medoc in style”. This wine is 100% Tempranillo, called locally Tinto Fino, and thus identifiably Spanish in
flavor and richness. Modern winemaking by Vega’s own highly-talented winemaker Javier Ausas,
combined with the use of top-quality new French oak gives Alion an international interpretation that is
difficult to resist.

PINTIA – Vega Sicilia set themselves an ambitious challenge when they started purchasing vineyards in Toro
in 1997. This region was well known for wines of great character, but little finesse. For 4 years they perfected
their style in secret, before finally releasing the 2001 under the name Pintia. The grape is 100% Tina de Toro, a
thick-skinned local clone of Tempranillo. The vega team carefully vinify the wine to extract only the finest tannins
and maintain aromatic purity, and age 1 year in the highest quality French and American oak barrels. Pintia
displays the stle and class (elegance even!!) of a Vega Sicilia Group wine, but with the extra spicy, forefuly
presence of a Toro.

VALBUENA 5 – Made from younger vines (average vine age of 20-25 years), and in years when Unico is
not produced grapes normally destined for Unico will go into Valbuena. It is only released after 5 years' ageing.
Comprised of 95% tempranillo, 5% merlot.

UNICO – the flagship and signature Gran Reserva wine, made up of mostly Tempranillo (approximately 80%),
Cabernet Sauvignon, and is usually released 10 years after aging in barrels and bottles. If Vega Sicilia’s
winemaker is dissatisfied with the quality of the harvest of any year, the winery will refuse to produce a single
bottle of Unico, which happened four times in the last 2 decades: 1992, 1993, 1997 and 2001.

UNICO RESERVA ESPECIAL – A mixture of wines from the best harvest from which the most
representative wine of the winery. “Reserva Especial” is a wine with the greatest personality, that combines
complexity of the Unico mulitplied by different vintages and provides us with a hugh range of aromas, pure
elegance in a never-ending flow through the magic of a myth. Only the best Unicos are used to produce
Reserva Especial; a mix of years, virtues, experiences and sentiments that serves only to profile the most
profound essence of a unique and unrepeatable style, the VEGA SICILIA style.
TOKAJI OREMUS – As a legendary estate, Vega-Sicilia set its sights on another legendary
name, a vineyard known as Oremus, which had produced the fi rst Aszú wine in 1650. Vega-Sicilia
purchased the estate after the break up of the Hungarian state monopoly in 1993. A state-of-the-art
winery, rediscovered by Vega-Sicilia´s meticulous work, with a single and noble aim: producing the
best wines following the last centuries' traditions.
