Note di degustazione
1994 and 1995 were a bit like 2004 and 2005, all very good vintages, but the ones ending in four were more elegant and the ones ending in five were more powerful and tannic. What I wrote about the 1995 Único in magnum is that it is tannic, serious and austere, a blend of Tinto Fino with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes were harvested after the 27th of September under dry weather and high temperatures, but the wine has 14% alcohol. It's a vintage that combines power with elegance. 2,247 magnums. The label has a painting from artist Miquel Barceló.

85% Tinto Fino, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Harvest 27 September. Post fermentation the wine remained in large-capacity wooden vats for 22 months. It then matured for 22 months in new casks, 28 months in second-use casks and 24 months in large capacity wooden vats. 88,340 bottles, 2,247 magnums, 149 double magnums. From magnum. A light gamey note and lots of punch. Unlike 1999 this has just enough fruit density to carry the high acidity. Chalky finish. Remarkably youthful. (JR)
Dark red. Intense, expressive aromas of blackberry, blueberry, cherry liqueur, sandalwood, cigar box, roasted coffee and exotic chocolate. Thick and sweet, with deep red and dark berry flavors complicated by an array of pungent spices, mocha, vanilla bean and cured tobacco. Deep, penetrating and very long on the finish, with wonderfully sweet cherry and blackcurrant flavors lingering. Built to age, but this is awfully delicious right now.
