Tasting Note

The Vega Sicilia Valbuena 5º 2019 is a refined expression of Ribera del Duero, showing remarkable balance and depth. On the nose, it opens with vibrant red and black fruit—raspberries, blackberries, and dark cherries—interwoven with notes of dried herbs, cedar, tobacco, and subtle spice from well-integrated oak. The palate is elegant yet powerful, with fine-grained tannins supporting layers of ripe fruit, graphite, balsamic nuances, and hints of cocoa. A lively acidity brings freshness, while the long, savoury finish carries notes of mineral and spice, reflecting both precision and harmony. This vintage is approachable in its youth but structured to age gracefully for decades.

Product Notes

Vega Sicilia Valbuena 5° is an exquisite Spanish red wine hailing from the Ribera del Duero region. This elegant wine pays homage to the complexity and depth of Tempranillo grapes, holding back on showing its true nature until given ample time to breathe. Upon pouring, alluring scents of ripe blackberry and spicy oak yield to luscious layers of red fruit, nutmeg, and tobacco on the palate. With its beautifully balanced tannins and crisp acidity, the Valbuena 5° delivers an incredibly long, harmonious finish. It is a fine testament to Vega Sicilia's legacy of stellar winemaking.
