AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Decanter :
97
Tasted by: Jeannie Cho Lee MW feb. 2014
Drinking Window: 2026 - 2048
Youthful nose with primary fruit and sweet oak, the palate reveals the wine’s incredible intensity and depth. Great potential to age beautifully.

95
Tasted by: Sarah Jane Evans MW
(at Vega Sicilia anniversary tasting, 06 Sep 2022)
Part of Vega Sicilia Único: anniversary vertical tasting of 40 vintages
Drinking Window: 2022 - 2038
A complicated year - cold spring, hot summer, intermittent rain at harvest - and the wine reveals this. It’s evolved more quickly with some ripe, generous fruit compote appearing. Underneath there’s a brisk line of acidity and some dusty tannin. In 2016 I scored this at 98 but my optimism has receded.

Wines have been stored in perfect conditions, first owner.
