Vega Sicilia Alión Tempranillo 2019: A Modern Expression of Ribera del Duero

95 points. “A potent, concentrated vintage with vibrant fruit and refined tannins, Alión 2019 is a rich and elegant wine from Spain’s most iconic producer.” – James Suckling

Tasting Notes:

  • Color: Deep violet-red.
  • Nose: Aromas of ripe black cherries, plums, and violets, complemented by subtle notes of baking spice and graphite.
  • Palate: Full-bodied with flavors of blackberries, espresso, and chocolate-covered cherries. The texture is velvety, supported by firm yet polished tannins and balanced acidity.
  • Finish: Long and refined, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of minerality.

The Story Behind the Wine:

Produced by the legendary Vega Sicilia, the Alión 2019 is made from 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), harvested from selected vineyards in the Ribera del Duero region. Aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels, this wine balances tradition with a modern, polished style. 2019 was a concentrated and powerful vintage, showcasing the vineyard’s unique terroir and the meticulous craftsmanship behind each bottle​.

Perfect Pairings:

  • Red Meats: Best paired with venison, lamb, or steak.
  • Cheese: Complements aged Manchego or hard cheeses like Pecorino.

Winemaking & Terroir:

The wine undergoes fermentation in wooden tanks and is aged predominantly in French oak, with a touch of American oak, which imparts complexity and smoothness to the tannins. This careful aging process ensures the wine retains its signature freshness and structure​(
