The huge, opaque-colored 1983 Unico Reserva still tastes like a barrel sample. It is fat and grapy, with massive flavor concentration, an expansive, sweet, jammy, blackcurrant fruitiness, spicy oak, and a long, robust, spicy finish. My rating is slightly lower than it was when I tasted this wine last year, but there is no doubting the wine's awesome levels of extract. Still tasting extremely undeveloped and unevolved, it requires a decade more of cellaring, although its sweetness and great ripeness of fruit make it accessible now.

Concentrated yet elegant layers of blackberries, blackcurrants, cloves, mussel shells, eucalyptus and some spearmint. Medium-bodied with fine, well-integrated tannins. Spicy at the end. Still so fresh. 65% tempranillo, 25% cabernet sauvignon and 10% merlot and malbec. Tasted from magnum.
