Alion 2020 Vega Sicilia

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate RP945

"2020 was drier than average until the harvest, when it rained and diluted the grapes, and they had to wait to regain concentration. The result is that the 2020 Alión is a wine with better balance and freshness. They felt the skins were very ripe and they could extract more and use a little more American oak (4%) in the élevage. From 2019, they kept the press wine separate until June, and they keep separate quantities of press wines that are aged in different containers depending on the quality of the wine. They used a percentage of concrete and oak vats for the élevage, which gives the wine more verticality and freshness. It's a subtle and elegant Alión, not as dense as some other vintages, but with nice balance and very elegant tannins. In 2020, they produced 285,485 bottles of this wine, 7,115 magnums and some larger formats. It was bottled in May 2022." 06/24

Alion is part of the Vega Sicilia Group, Spain’s famous family of great wines, a project of the Alvarez family under the Ribera del Duero denomination of origin.

The winery was set up in 1992 to create an alternative to the iconic Vega Sicilia wines. It is located just 15 kilometres from the mother winery, by the course of the Duero and in the vicinity of the town of Peñafiel, Ribera's wine capital per excellence.

Although it was initially expected to be the "junior partner" of the great mythical wine, more accessible and less expensive, a new role was applied to it so that it would shine in its own light and demonstrate the virtues of the terroir from which it comes. The idea was successfully accomplished as it quickly built up an excellent reputation, positioning itself as a faithful representative of the best wines produced in Ribera del Duero, and actually, the wine is nearly as highly appreciated and sought-after as those of Vega Sicilia.

Production:

Alion is a single varietal Tinto Fino. The grapes are carefully selected and harvested by hand from plots located in the best areas of the Ribera del Duero DO, from its 70 hectares under vine which are spread through Padilla del Duero, Valbuena de Duero and Pesquera de Duero. The average age of the vines is 40 years old, growing at 750 metres above sea level.

Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled wooden vats. It is aged for 12 to 14 months in new French oak bordeaux barrels and also in cement. Afterwards, it will rest for a further 15 months in the bottle.

Tasting Notes:

Intense cherry red colour. Excellent complexity on the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits, liquorice and light menthol. Full bodied, wonderfully balanced, elegant and meaty on the palate. Concentrated cherry black fruit, silky, smooth, with hints of spice and fine mineral notes. The length is exceptional in this fine, elegant wine.
