The Story

Of the 1,000 hectares making up the Vega Sicilia estate, 210 are used for wine growing, and there are 19 soil-types divided for management purposes into 52 plots with very specific characteristics. The influence of the flow of the river Duero and the passage of time have been vital in forming these soils.

70 of these hectares are employed to produce Unico. A unique, magical estate which, along with extraordinary management of the vineyard, ...

Wine Information

Unico – Bodegas Vega Sicilia

Bodegas Vega Sicilia Unico is still “a prophet in its own land”, Spain, and only a small part of the production leaves the country to be sold abroad. The production of Unico varies from 30.000 to 100.000 bottles depending on the year.

1944 Vega Unico. Just this first smell and everyone around the table is intrigued , big time! The caramel marmalade, coffee and dried cedar are telling us all Spain. Especially Jan-Erik, because his radar is tuned to shoot down Spanish bogies. The nose is similar to the 1925 Marquis Riscal we had in an earlier flight, but this gorgeous we-think-Spanish wine is in a whole different echelon of quality. The color is black currant juice-like, with lightly browning edges. Then to the tongue...This is the 40's or 50's because of the softness of the tannins, but man that is serious density. This wine was a monster in it's youth and you can tell it was more rustic in it's past, its like an older gentleman who was real muscular and buccaneering bad-ass when he was young. This is classy penache all the way.....Then the wine is revealed to be none other than 1944 Vega Sicilia Unico, the bottle is war-time green glass, and to think that this was crafted while Franco facism was holding Spain....This is drinking history!
