Vega Sicilia Alión 2020 75cl
Alión is the result of a careful selection of terroirs located in the best areas of DO Ribera del Duero. Soils that complement each other and the same viticultural practices used at Vega Sicilia produce wines with a firm structure.
The 2020 vintage was drier than others right up to the harvest. The grapes were very healthy, but the heavy rains in September marked the vintage and diluted the fruit. They had to wait for the grapes to re-concentrate before harvesting, but the resulting wines were more vertical, balanced and fresh. They were able to extract more because the skins were highly polymerised, allowing them to increase the proportion of American oak by 4%.
The use of concrete helped them to improve the verticality and freshness of the wines.
Covid made 2020 a challenging vintage, but the wines are delicate, deep and spicy. This Alión stands out for its elegance and finesse.
