The NV Único Reserva Especial 2023 Release is a blend produced with vintages 2009, 2011 and 2012, in search of a house style. It's a blend of Tinto Fino with some Cabernet Sauvignon with 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.85 and 5.2 grams of acidity (measured in tartaric acid per liter of wine); so, it's a slightly lighter version of Reserva Especial. When in theory they used three warm, ripe and powerful vintages, the blend is not excessively powerful, but the longer élevage has polished that power and delivered a classical and proportioned wine, aromatic, spicy, with the Vega nose and a velvety palate with very fine tannins and great elegance.

Ripe and appealing on the nose, with notes of date and dark chocolate that also show on the palate, joining a core of bitter cherry reduction, mandarin orange peel, dried mint and mineral flavors. Seamless and silky, with a plush edge to the firm, fine tannins. Long and expansive on the focused, spiced finish.
