AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Wine: Bodegas Vega-Sicilia - "Único" Vintage 1965.
Edition and numbering: Limited production of 91,000 bottles. (The individual bottle number appears embossed on the right as No. 03..., check it by hand to enter the exact 5 digits in the file).
Parker Points: 92–94 / 100 (Critic’s estimate for the 1965 vintage).
Fill level: Upper shoulder / Base of neck. (Looking at the neck of this second Único bottle in the background of your first and third photo, the fill level is extraordinary, even slightly higher than 1953, positioned at the upper shoulder near the base of the neck).
Label condition: Stained / rubbed / written / torn / loose (Stained label). Original parchment label with a light winery patina, but with 100% of the text perfectly clear: grape varieties at the top ("Produced with grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Tinto Fino and Albillo"), Vintage 1965, bottler’s registry (No. 2,342), total edition (91,000 bottles) and the president’s signature at the base.
Capsule condition: Excellent or corroded / cracked. In the general photos the maroon lead capsule is largely intact and well-adhered, with only very slight surface marks from age and no signs of leaks or sunken or protruding cork.
