Only the best Unicos are used to produce Reserva Especial; a mix of years, virtues, experiences and sentiments that serves only to profile the most profound essence of a unique and unrepeatable style, the Vega Sicilia style. This red wine has no vintage and it is the tribute to tradition. The winery here sought to continue a very old Spanish custom and also to combine the balance between vintages. Traditionally, in Spain, the very few wineries that had a bottling process prepared two types of wines in each harvest: the one of the current year and another wine without a specific harvest, which they called “Reserva Especial”. It was a mixture of wines from the best harvest from which the most representative wine of the winery was siphoned off. Reserva Especial is complex and intense on the nose with cedar, tobacco, dried red pepper and dark fruit.

Vega Sicilia
Bodegas Vega Sicilia is one of Spain's most renowned names. Their winery is located in the Ribera del Duero wine region in northern Spain. The winery was founded in 1864 and has been owned by the Álvarez family since 1982. They have introduced several changes, slightly modernized the system, and transformed the former winery into a true empire.
