Massive perfection

Vega-Sicilia Unico Reserva Especial;
According to Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book, a blend mostly of 1962 and 1979, bottled in 1989. A/B level fill, perfect cork. Bright ruby with some brick rim. Chocolate, some spices, massive intencity, blackberries, hints of After Eight, roses and liquorice. Such elegance, complexity and balance. Acidity cleans extremelly well, but never to powerfull, tannins close to gone, a bit cherry stone, very ripe morellos, some cigars and leather. After an hour in the glass, candy aples, later on, some old vintage port notes. Evolves and develops through the two hours it was left in the decanter. A truly marvelous wine, and must be an absolute perfect bottle. Acidity dances on the tongue, bringing waves upon waves with new flavours. 100
