  Vega Sicilia Unico Dinner with Pablo Alvarez (Asador Bastian - Chicago IL): 75/79/81 flight. Charming and so complete, still wonderfully fresh. Just clearly less depth than the 1981 in this same flight.

  Acker Vega Sicilia dinner with Pablo Álvarez (Asador Bastian): 75/79/81. A more red fruited edition with an array of toasted herbs. This is texturally lithe and dances across the palate with length and precision. Seamless and elegant.

  3/28/2020 - Bandreas Likes this wine:

  Surprisingly short cork for such a high quality/high-price wine...
  Very dark color, impenetrable in the center, garnet at the rim - definitively belying the wine's age..
  Powerful bouquet of leather, leather dust and "sweaty saddle" coupled with sweetish notes of dried prunes, also underlying tannins. There is also a touch of "morbidezza" on the nose.
  On the palate it is very round with firm and ample mouthfeel and good finish. A solid wine, but to me, not extraordinary. Nor would I pay today's market price for it.
  My wife liked it a lot.

  Second bottle after 2 years also excellent, open 5 hours before dinner, burst of sweetness on the nose. Fully resolved very clean velvet elegant and long. Berries garden which makes you want to drink again and again. Can finish a bottle alone. Many years to go!
