1983 Vega Sicila Unico Ribera Del Duero Magnum

1983 Vega Sicila Unico Ribera Del Duero Magnum image
(92 Points) I wasn't thoroughly impressed by the magnum of the 1983 Único that I tasted. It was produced with 65% Tempranillo, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest completed with Merlot and Malbec, with only 13% alcohol. It feels like a weaker vintage, and the wine shows a bit evolved and the fruit is drying out a bit, revealing notes of dry hay. As is often the case, the palate shows better than the nose, already quite polished and with resolved tannins, but it wasn't among the greatest vintages. It was a short crop from a challenging year, with 44,000 bottles and 2,000 magnums produced.
