Flavour Profile
Elegant and poised, Alión is an impressive Ribera del Duero that captures the character of the region. Although a separate estate, Alión is part of the famous Vega Sicilia family of great wines.
Just 15 kilometres from the legendary main estate, Alión showcases the virtues of the different terroirs, climates and traditional varieties of the Ribera del Duero. This is a wine filled with dense, dark plum and prune fruit, with juicy tannins and beautifully integrated oak spice. Decant before serving and enjoy with roast leg of lamb or a rich stew.
“Notes of prune and dark plum lend an opulent, almost Cabernet-like character that will appeal to lovers of richer, more explosive styles. One of the most exuberant and fruit-forward Alión vintages in recent memory.” 17/20, jancisrobinson.com.
