Tempos Vega Sicilia Unico

The name Vega Sicilia appears in documents centuries before the winery appeared in 1864. “Vega” is a reference to the abundant vegetation on the banks of the river Duero. “Sicily” comes from the name of Saint Cecilia, the protector of music. The one who chose the name is Don Eloy Lecanda y Chaves, a local viticulturist with studies in Bordeaux and the founder of the vineyard in 1864. A skilled merchant, he quickly raised the prestige of the field, so it is no wonder that in 1876 he became a supplier to the Royal House of Spain. 98 Wine Enthusiast Points 97 Parker Points Color: dark red-purple, with ink-colored hues Bouquet: impressive, clean and fresh, with a symphony of black fruits (blackberries and currants) and red (raspberries), harmoniously woven with notes of cedar and tobacco Taste: strong attack, but not at all aggressive; full body, soft tannins, intense aromas of black cherry compote, licorice, Whitepepper and minerals; wonderful balance between power and elegance, with a complex and persistent end Culinary combinations: game (wild boar, deer), roast lamb or red meat Serving temperature 16-18 ° C Number of bottle produced: 100,000
