2021 | Vega Sicilia Alion | Ribera del Duero Champagne Francis Verrier and freshly-picked Muscat grapesA pretty deep but fresh and harmonious wine that can be consumed early. Its from a blend of Ribera del Duero vineyards. Fascinating aromas of fine spices, dark chocolate, dark cherries, blackberries and cedar wood. Medium to full bodied with fine, chalky tannins and a lasting finish. Impeccable balance. A textbook Ribera del Duero that gives a panoramic view of the region. 95 Pts James Suckling
