✨ Tekniske specifikationer

The Vega Sicilia Assortment Case is an ultra-exclusive, curated collection that brings together the crown jewels of Spain's most legendary estate. Rather than a single bottling, this prestigious offering typically features a selection of the winery's iconic releases, including the mythical 'Unico'—celebrated for its decade-long aging process in French and American oak—and the vibrant 'Valbuena 5°', alongside exceptional selections from sister properties like Alión or Pintia. Originating from the harsh, high-altitude continental climate of Ribera del Duero, where vines struggle in limestone and alluvial soils along the Duero River, these wines represent the pinnacle of Spanish viticultural history. Owning an assortment case offers an unparalleled journey through the estate's mastery of Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), showcasing both the traditional, long-aged complexity and the modern, fruit-forward expressions of this historic terroir.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Vega Sicilia blev grundlagt i 1864 af Don Eloy Lecanda y Chaves i Valbuena de Duero i den spanske region Ribera del Duero og regnes i dag blandt verdens absolut mest legendariske og ærefrygtindgydende vinhuse. Siden Álvarez-familien overtog ejendommen i 1982, har vineriet kompromisløst videreført sin tradition for minutiøs vinavl og nobelt håndværk, hvor den lokale Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) forenes harmonisk med klassiske Bordeaux-druer. Vinhuset er berømmet for sin usædvanligt lange modningsproces på fade og flaske – som ofte strækker sig over et årti eller mere før frigivelse – og skaber vine med enorm kompleksitet og et exceptionelt lagringspotentiale. Ejendommens flagskibe, herunder den ikoniske Único, multivintage-cuvéen Único Reserva Especial samt Valbuena 5°, står fortsat som tidløse pejlemærker for spansk vinkunst i absolut særklasse.
