This bottle of Valbuena 3º Año, from the prestigious Vega-Sicilia estate in Ribera del Duero, shows signs of ageing, with a label that is partially worn and displays visible wear consistent with long-term storage. All essential information, however, remains identifiable. The capsule is fully intact, with no signs of leakage or structural damage. The fill level is slightly lower than usual, indicating some natural evaporation over time. This remains acceptable for a mature bottle and does not suggest leakage. Despite the cosmetic imperfections, the bottle has been well preserved overall, always kept under stable and appropriate temperature conditions. Valbuena is known for its longevity and complexity, making it a desirable wine even when showing natural ageing on the exterior. A solid opportunity for collectors seeking an authentic, mature bottle from Vega-Sicilia at an attractive entry point.
