The Chambers Collection: This standout consignment comes from a wildly successful New Jersey trial lawyer who had a deep passion for blue-chip Italian wines. All wines stored in the consignor’s ice-cold, temperature-controlled home cellar.
"The 1995 Unico is a worthy successor to the profound 1994 (awarded a score of 98+ in Issue #159). Opaque purple in color, it has aromatic complexity which nearly defies words. There are notes of earth, licorice, hard wood charcoal, and black currants. Full-bodied, and powerful, the wine has beautiful balance with a multi-dimensional character and the structure to last for 25-40 years." (97 pts. Jay S. Miller, Wine Advocate, Feb. 2007)
"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." (96 pts. Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, Jan. 2023)
