Alión, of outstanding personality, is aged in new French oak barrels for 12 to 14 months and later bottled until it is ready for drinking. Vega Sicilia Alion is, without a doubt, the most universal wine of the family. Vega Sicilia Alion is also intense, complex, full-bodied, where elegance plays a differentiating role being the winery´s sign of identity. Its modern, genuine and multicultural character makes it easy to pair.
Country: Spain, Ribera del Duero
Tasting Notes: Aromas of violet, blackberry and plum toggle between fruity and floral, while this ripe-year Tempranillo feels a touch heavy, with hard tannins. Baked blackberry and black-tea flavors culminate on a short finish, with minty oak notes and scrubbing tannins.
