Spain
Vega Sicilia is Spain’s most famous winery in the Ribera del Duero. This wine is aged for fives years in new and used oak, hence its name.
96 Points The Wine Advocate: “2014 is a spectacular vintage of Valbuena, and it reminds me of the 2010, perhaps a tad more elegant and less powerful. It's expressive and has floral notes on the nose along with wild berries, herbs and a spicy and smoky touch that's nicely integrated. It has good complexity and nuance, and the palate is medium to full-bodied and intense, with pungent flavors and great length and persistence. Truly spectacular!”
