Coming up on Tuesday 29 April, we have our Fine Wine, Champagne, Vintage Port and Spirits auction. We are pleased to be offering an important collection of Vega Sicilia Unico, with cases from 1960-1990. Here, Senior Wine Consultant, Mark Robertson, tells us more about this collection.
Very few collections land on my desk that make the heart leap a little more. This is one of them.
Filed under “Things that did not happen” - it has been reported that Vega Sicilia refused to supply the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana Spencer because they did not have an allocation. Wikipedia now claim that Charles III is a loyal customer. Whether His Majesty learnt his lesson or the estate’s PR team jumped into action, we will never know - but if there is any truth, previous issues that his ancestors had with the Spanish have been forgotten and he has brilliant taste.
Vega Sicilia is Spain’s greatest wine, and in our April auction of Fine Wine, Champagne, Vintage Port and Spirits we are offering a truly unique and remarkable experience to buy Unico and Reserva Especial from a private collection of cases dating from 1960-1990.
