The legendary wine of Vega Sicilia: 94% Tempranillo, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes grow in the area where the alluvial plain meets the hillside. 2010 is a huge, concentrated and abundant vintage that will make history. In the case of Unico, known for its long ageing, the 2010 vintage was aged for 6 years before being released. Blackberry, sour cherry, cherry, vanilla, cedar, earthy notes and flowers appear on the layered nose and palate. It has an amazing structure, ripe and silky tannins, lovely acidity, with a very long, intense aftertaste.
The 210-hectare estate by the River Duero is the centre of the Alvárez empire. Harvesting 10 years after planting, chemical-free cultivation and three blends in the whole selection: Único produced in exceptional vintages; Reserva Especial blended from the best vintages; and Valbuena harvested from the younger vines.
