1973 Vega Sicilia Único - Ribera del Duero Gran Reserva - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

1 bottle of Red Wine Ribera del Duero Vega Sicilia Único Gran Reserva 1973. Vintage rating for Ribera del Duero: Very Good. The bottle is perfect, no leaks, with the normal tone of a wine of 53 years. It has always been well stored. Shipping of €13 only to Spain. After the first few nervous minutes opening the bottle with utmost care and seeing the cork almost entirely wet, we perceive on the nose a wine that we presume is capable of giving a lot of happiness still. We decant it with care to let it breathe and wait patiently. Color is cherry red, medium-low opacity with a brownish edge. The first impressions on the nose resemble a great Barolo, curious. Complex and deep, the tertiary notes stand out, fine and elegant notes of aged and noble woods, like an antique furniture shop, also pitch, damp earth, quality leathers, balsamic notes... The same sensations repeat on the retro-nasal. Good acidity, with present, integrated tannins; a wine with a future, irresistible. A wine of international renown whose label from 40 years ago reads “Vino Fino de Mesa,” produced with Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Tinto Fino and white grape Albillo. 90,000 bottles in its 1973 vintage. Both “Único” (coming from the oldest vines of the estate and with a minimum of seven years wood aging and more than three in bottle), and “Valbuena,” from somewhat younger vines, began to be produced for the first time in 1915. With “Reserva Especial Único” being the other label of the house, a non-vintage wine blending the best harvests. All bottles are numbered. Undoubtedly a stroke of luck to try this 1973 from the flagship label of the winery, Vega Sicilia Único, a mythical, unique wine. Each lot ships individually and there is no possibility of grouping, since the transport rate used is MONOBULTO. The condition is never guaranteed; it is a collectible wine. I am not responsible for the cork falling inside the bottle during transport. If the shipment is to low-temperature countries such as Norway or Finland and the wine freezes, I am not responsible. Due to the temperature rise in the summer months, I am exempt in case any bottle could suffer a leak due to heat, vehicle, or poor storage by the transport company. It is a new item, never opened. Note: When wines are so old, it is better to let them rest again in a cellar for up to 2 months so the sediment settles. To improve tasting, it is advisable to open the bottle 2 hours before drinking for better oxygenation. If you are a buyer in the Balearic Islands, the sale price increases; an EXTRA will be added since shipping to the peninsula is not the same as to the ISLANDS. Payment will be made via Bizum or bank transfer. Shipping will be via Old Logística. No returns accepted.
