{"product_id":"vega-sicilia-alion-2009","title":"Vega Sicilia Alion 2009","description":"Vega Sicilia Alión 2009 is a full-bodied Tempranillo red wine from the Ribera del Duero region of Spain. Vega Sicilia`s Alión cuvée is a thoroughly modern expression of Ribera. Winemaking is executed entirely with modern methods and state-of-the-art equipment. A proportion of the fruit for Alión is sourced from the historic vineyards of Vega Sicilia. \"The 2009 Alion, pure Tempranillo aged in French oak, has had the benefit of a couple more years in bottle than the 2011 and shows more nuances, more restraint and a more serious aroma profile. It’s also a ripe year, with notes of plums and shy violets, the oak well-integrated into the wine. The palate is full-bodied with abundant, fine-grained tannins and a velvety, juicy texture, with good extraction and stuffing. I think this will be longer lived than the 2011. They have different styles – this is classier, and 2011 is more exuberant – but they are both at a similar quality level. 320,000 bottles produced.
