Decanting Time: Open bottle for 30 minutes and decant for at least 1 and half hours for the best experience. Enjoy and serve at 18°C. Alion holds a potential aging window of approximately 15-20 years if kept in ideal conditions: constant temperature of 12-14 ºC and 60% relative humidity.

Our suggestion for decanting time is based on bottles we tried at Txanton over 2023. We guarantee Txanton stocks are imported and maintained on a proper storage with right temperature and humidity.

Good to know: Alión is formed by a careful selection of plots spread across the best of Ribera del Duero. These plots, which complement each other, joined by the same kind of viticulture as Vega Sicilia, have given rise to firm structured wines.

Alión is a fleshy, complex, intense wine, where elegance plays a differentiating role and is the winery´s hallmark. Of outstanding personality, lots in Alion are guided through 12 months aging in French oak barrels and 5% American oak, to obtain maximum complexity from the diversity of soil.

Even though TEMPOS Vega Sicilia group was set up in 1982 by the Alvarez family, Vega Sicilia was founded by Eloy Lecanda y Chaves in1864. He was a Spanish winemaker trained in Bordeaux who returned to his homeland with cabernet sauvignon and merlot grapes. In the 20th century, Vega Sicilia earned a reputation as being one of the most notable wines in Spain.

Over its history, the winery has had many notable winemakers including Mariano Garcia who was winemaker from 1966 to 1996 before moving on to produce his own labels (Mauro, San Roman and Garmon).

The Álvarez family's business project is based on two fundamental cornerstones: consistency of the quality of the product as a guarantee for the different vintages, and dedication to the client as a benchmark in its routine activity.

Both cornerstones have underpinned the development of the group and have enabled very solid growth both in terms of the production structure and of the distribution and positioning of the different wines. The group currently consists of 5 companies (Bodegas Vega Sicilia S.A, Bodegas y Viñedos Alión S.A., Bodegas y Viñedos Pintia S.A., Benjamin de Rothschild & Vega Sicilia S.A. and Tokaj-Oremus Kft.), the first four in Spain and the fifth in Hungary.

From the positioning perspective, the group enjoys a magnificent public image among its clients and in the rest of the market alike. This image is endorsed both by the international awards that it receives annually and for the numerous appearances in the media around the world. But particularly for the huge acceptance that its wines have in the different markets in which they are present.
