Notas de Parker

"2008 was a challenging vintage in Ribera del Duero, a vintage marked by a severe frost on September 24th. The vineyards of Vega Sicilia were saved by some anti-frost burners that really made the difference. Even though, there are only some 70,000 bottles of 2008 Único, a wine that will be released around March 2016 after the 2007, and before they sell 2005 and 2006. It's a fresher, more mineral version of Vega, and very much Vega in character. It has a certain aroma that I cannot define that I also found in the 2011 Valbuena. The palate is surprisingly polished; the wine is quite accessible from now on, with fine tannins and a subtle thread of acidity going through the core. This is a lighter version of Único, but one style I like very much; it's a wine that should drink well throughout its life. A triumph for the vintage conditions".

Notas de Cata de Peñín sobre la añada 2002: Color cereza intenso. Aroma fruta madura, tostado, chocolate, café aromático. Boca sabroso, especiado, taninos finos, fino amargor.

Otras puntuaciones: 18.5 / 20 MV sobre la añada 2004

"Ceniza de habano, cedro, cueros finos en una nariz compleja y elegante. Fruta, cuerpo, elegancia, largura: todo está reunido en este gran vino."
