Alión 2002 (Tempranillo)

TASTING NOTES:

View: Alión 2002 has a ruby red colour covered with blackened, clean and bright.
Nose: Aromas genuine.
Palate: As in his previous harvest and common denominator can be defined as the wine in its purest form, ie, nothing overrides anything and the role is for the fruit. Continue the path of elegance in style Alión. In attack is powerful, wide mouth went where it appears assembled fruit and fine wood. End face of great persistence.

Experts

While 2002 was a lesser vintage, you would never know it from tasting the 2002 Alion. Saturated purple in color, it offers up an exotic nose of coconut, espresso, herbs, black currants and cherries. Rich and complex on the palate with lots of glycerin and layers of black fruit flavors, it has a pure, long finish that goes on and on.

4 /5

I bought it at the wine cellar of Bodegas Vega Sicilia.
Reddish towards brown colour. Cedarwood aromas. Flashy flavours of red fruits.

4/5

A bright deep red color with streaks of violet. Full and elegant on the nose, with a wide range of aromas, such as vanilla, ripe fruits, compote and syrups. The palate is opulent and elegant with harmonious tannins providing a subtle backbone to the wine; great aromatic persistence in the mouth. Designed to drink well on release, the tannins will nevertheless support at least 10 years further ageing.
