Alión is Vega Sicilia’s modern interpretation of Ribera del Duero—100% Tempranillo, aged in French oak, and designed for luxurious power. The 2018 vintage delivers black fruit intensity, velvety tannins, and impressive purity in a format built to last.
This 3L bottle is not just large—it’s epic. Whether for cellaring or celebration, Alión offers one of Spain’s greatest red wine experiences.
