Merchant's description

Vega Sicilia Único 1941 is a mature red wine from a historic vintage in Ribera del Duero. This blend of Tinto Fino and Cabernet Sauvignon underwent and extraordinary ageing process, spending decades in wood and bottle before release. After more than 80 years, the profile exhibits a profound array of tertiary notes including cedar, dried figs, tobacco, leather and truffle. Despite the capsule condition, this bottling represents a rare glimpse into the early mid-century history of Spain’s most prestigious estate.
