This wine embodies the diversity of Ribera del Duero, a mosaic of personalities harvested from select vineyards stretching from the eastern border in Soria to the western end at the Vega Sicilia estate. As noted by Tim Atkin MW, while in Ribera del Duero there is a trend towards village and parcel-specific wines, some of the best Ribera del Dueros are blends across regions. Alión is very much a\u003cbr\u003epan-Ribera red, sourced predominantly from Moradillo, with other vital components from Padilla, Pesquera, Peñaranda, Villálvaro, and the Vega Sicilia estate itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the warmest, driest seasons in recent years. Spring was warm and frost free. Summer brought several heatwaves requiring careful canopy management. Cooler nights in late August balanced ripening.

There is a touch of sweet fruit character to the mid palate, and the alcohol feels slightly higher than usual, though balanced by plush, juicy tannins and beautifully integrated oak. Notes of prune and dark plum lend an opulent, almost Cabernet-like character that will appeal to lovers of richer, more explosive styles. One of the most exuberant and fruit-forward Alión vintages in recent memory.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productattributes\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Country\" data-content=\"The Country of origin.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"las la-globe\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Alcohol ABV\" data-content=\"Alcohol by volume percentage.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"las la-percentage\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003eABV\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e14.5%\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Region\" data-content=\"The Region of origin.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"las la-map-marker\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col region\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCastilla y Leon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Sub-Region\" data-content=\"The Sub-Region of origin.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"las la-map-marker\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRibera del Duero\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Grape Varieties\" data-content=\"Variety is used to refer to different types of grapes.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"lab la-canadian-maple-leaf\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTempranillo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col icon\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Vivino Rating\" data-content=\"Vivino uses a 5-star rating system in which users can rate wines 1 through 5 stars.\" data-placement=\"top\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"lar la-star\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003eVivino Rating:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.5\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridgewine.com\/shop\/products\/wine\/red-wine\/alion-tempos-vega-sicilia-2022-ribera-del-duero.html#\" data-trigger=\"hover\" data-toggle=\"popover\" title=\"Producer\" data-content=\"A wine producer is a person or company that makes, bottles, distributes, or otherwise markets wine.
