Clearly more mature, with its paler garnet colour. More developed in the mouth with tomato and red cherry preserves. Very long and fresh finish, even if no longer as complete as others.  Vega Sicilia says 'it demonstrates the elegance of old wines,' and it does. Cold, rainy winter, before a soft and rainy spring; a ‘very difficult harvest with risk’. 18 months in large wooden tanks, then decanted into old and progressively older casks over the course of 24 months, and used casks for the next 60 months before ageing in bottle. 79,240 bottles, 2,030 magnums and 110 double magnums.
