There are only a few wineries that can lay genuine claim to being iconic, but one of those is without question Spain’s ‘first growth’ - the indomitable Vega Sicilia.
It was our pleasure to welcome the Vega Sicila team to Roberson for a tasting of their range of wines, including all the new releases and some back vintages of their famous Valbuena and, of course, Unico.
Winemaker Xavier Ausas talked us through these unforgettable wines, which all agreed showed magnificently well.
