“Unico Reserva Especial is a true reflection and tribute to the history of Spanish wine, perfectly combining the characteristics of different vintages of UNICO. Only the best vintages of UNICO are used to produce this legendary and remarkably complex wine; a blend of many years, virtues, experiences and feelings that only expresses the most profound essence of a unique, inimitable style, the Vega Sicilia style. Unico Reserva Especial 2018 is composed of 58 barrels including vintages 2005, 2006 and 2007, among others. It feels young and not that far away from the current vintage of Único, 2006, which is released at the same time as this. It’s mostly Tempranillo with some Cabernet Sauvignon, where the aim is to keep a constant character across the different releases. It has a classical profile, with polished tannins and nice subtlety.” Wine Advocate, #238
