About Winery
Vega Sicilia is one of Spain’s most iconic and prestigious wineries, with a rich history dating back to 1864. Here's a brief overview:
Founded by Don Eloy Lecanda y Chaves, a Spanish winemaker trained in Bordeaux, who brought with him French grape varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. He planted these alongside the native Tempranillo (then called Tinto del País) in the Ribera del Duero region.
The winery gained fame in the 20th century for producing some of Spain’s most celebrated wines, especially its flagship wine, Único, known for its complexity and extraordinary aging potential.
In 1982, the Álvarez family acquired Vega Sicilia, marking a new era of modernization and expansion. Under Pablo Álvarez’s leadership, the winery has maintained its legendary status while also expanding into other regions like Toro (with Pintia) and Rioja.
Despite its name, Vega Sicilia has no connection to the island of Sicily. “Vega” refers to fertile river plains, and “Sicilia” is believed to reference Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music.
Tasting Notes
This is the non-vintage Vega Sicilia, a tribute to tradition.
A true testimony to the history of Spanish wine, Unico Reserva Especial perfectly combines the qualities of the different Unico vintages. Only the best Unico vintages are selected to make this iconic and exceptionally complex wine, which blends years, virtues, experiences and emotions to create the essence of a unique and inimitable style, the Vega Sicilia style.
Unico Reserva Especial 2024 is a blend of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 vintages.
Variety: 95 % Tinto Fino and 5 % Cabernet-Sauvignon
