Alion 2015
Vega Sicilia
Very impressive red plums and the Alion has a very approachable feel to it, supple and even. The nose delivers some savory, slightly tarry and earthy character with a classic, direct and easy-to-understand feel. Some dried flowers, too. The palate has medium body and delivers fleshy, round red cherries, gently savory, spicy elements and fine, long and detailed tannins. A great Alion, full of flavor, very fresh. Drink across the next 15 years.

Valbuena 5° 2014
Vega Sicilia
The ripeness is impressive here. A lot of work was done in the vineyard in 2014 to get yields right. It delivers darker fruit aromas and flavors, black cherries and plums, dark chocolate and licorice. The palate is deeply fleshy with rich blueberries, cassis and dark roasting herbs. Very deep-set, powerful black fruit with a deeper tannin texture. The power and freshness here is extraordinary. Deeply layered. Superb.

Pintia 2014
Vega Sicilia
A powerful nose is initially closed and gaseous, but in due time it opens and delivers brambly, leathery black fruit aromas and smoky oak. A grabby palate is chalky and tight, while this Toro tastes dark and toasty, with spicy berry and cassis flavors that push up against desiccated and raisiny. This is probably more flashy and ripe than deeply structured.
