Alion is pure seduction, talk about minerality. Another blockbuster from the Vega family. Distinct note of lapsong souchong and black perigord truffle!

2006 Alion settling beautifully into it's skin. Wine of the day! Had it 18 months in London (for near half the price) great then, better now! Stunning depth, seamless, wicked beautifully supple tannin! Give me a bit of cow and a bottle of Alion & you'll have a very happy fella sitting in front of you! #FilthyGoodVino #Tempranillo #Wine #Alion

One of my favourite RdD @ £45 that's drinking great but will still evolve further & get even sexier 💃

🍷 Dark ruby

👃 Chocolate infused dark dark plump berries & plum w/ fine smoked oak

👄 Med+ bodied creamy smooth chocolate laden dark & red ripe fruits galore w/ slight dry fine tannin

🎯 Long touch dry dark & red fruit cocoa cherry 💥
