Alion 2001 Alion Bodegas

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (95)

The finest Alion I have tasted from this project owned by the proprietors of Vega Sicilia, the 2001 is a sensational effort. Moreover, while it’s not inexpensive, 25,000 cases are produced. A deep ruby/purple color is followed by a glorious, smoky nose of espresso, dried herbs, roasted meats, sweet black currants, new saddle leather, plums, and cherries. This provocative, rich, complex, full-bodied Ribera del Duero possesses wonderful glycerin, fabulous purity, and a long finish that lasts for 40+ seconds. It is an opulent, voluptuously-styled wine with great stature. Drink it over the next decade.

Focused and fresh, this red offers blackberry, raspberry, mineral and toast flavors, with firm but well-integrated tannins. It's harmonious and lively.?
