About this Item
Vega Sicilia was founded in 1864 by the Don Eloy Lecanda y Chaves. It is considered as the top Spanish wine producer with its wine receiving much international acclaim. The Alvarez family took over in 1982 providing more consistent quality in their wines over the years. They produce three wines Unico, Valbuena 5° and Vega Sicilia Unico Reserva Especial from their 210 hectares of vines.
Critics Ratings
'Very deep healthy crimson with a lovely fresh kick of lively fruit. Fine, tense , taut – very difficult to believe this is so old – it tastes much more youthful than the 1996 Unico.' - 2012 – 2035 18.5 Jancis Robinson MW 2007
