Lot #288. Vega-Sicilia Único 1996

Description: Consists of 3 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 97 WA.
"The 1996 Unico is from what the Vega Sicilia team calls 'an icon vintage.' Medium purple in color, it emits a lovely perfume of smoke, mineral, Asian spices, balsamic, and assorted black fruits. Elegant, savory, and intense on the palate, it has enough underlying structure to evolve . . . . Bodegas Vega Sicilia remains a benchmark for the world’s great red wines." Wine Advocate # 189, Jun 2010
Estimate: $1,200
