Alion Ribera del Duero Tinto Fino 2020

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Full-bodied with medium acidity.

Very dry on the palate with nice complexity and a nice mouthfeel.

Showing black fruits, cedar, licorice, chocolates, dark coffee, pencil lead, earth and peppercorn.

This is a delicious Tempranillo from Ribera Del Duero in Spain. Elegant and rich. Fruit forward and nicely balanced.

Starting to drink beautifully now, and needs a couple of hours to open up properly, so be patient.

Wine Enthusiasts 96 points. Wine Advocate 95 points.

This 5 year old Tempranillo is already complex, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

100% Tempranillo grapes, from 40 year old vines, were aged for 14 months in oak barrels and concrete vats.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$120.

On the palate this has quite good density and grippy tannin , balanced acidity , darker ripe fruits. Reasonable length . Quite polished and modern in style . Needs time , come back in 5 years and will last well at least a further 10 . — 2 days ago

Pintia Toro Tempranillo 2019

Toro: one of the oldest and strongest expressions of Tempranillo is tamed by the House of Vega Sicilia. Pintia preserves the rustic and robust nature of the DO in an elegant way. Aromas and flavors of dark fruit, violets, dark chocolate, coffee and spice. Full bodied, high alcohol and fine grain tannins with a strong finish are sure to entice. — 3 months ago
