The Valbuena 5° is the purest expression of a red wine from Vega Sicilia. This blend of Tinto Fino and a small percentage of Merlot comes from vines averaging 35 years of age, grown on 210 hectares of Vega Sicilia’s single vineyard at elevations ranging from 720 to 930 meters. With its combination of power, elegance, and exceptional finesse, the Valbuena 5° ranks among the great classics of the Ribera del Duero.

The grapes are hand-harvested into small 12-kg crates and carefully selected. The aging process takes a total of five years, to which the wine owes its name: It matures for twelve months in oak barrels, followed by twelve months in large wooden casks, another six months in stainless steel tanks, and finally 18 months in the bottle. This exceptionally long aging period gives it its impressive complexity, elegance, and harmony.

On the nose, the Valbuena 5° presents a multi-layered and elegant bouquet. On the palate, it is precise, profound, and superbly structured. Its fine tannin structure, harmonious balance, and exceptional length give it great expressiveness and enormous aging potential.

This great Ribera del Duero pairs perfectly with braised lamb, beef tenderloin, game dishes, and aged hard cheeses. Thanks to its aging potential, it is both an excellent dining companion and a wine for special occasions.

Vega Sicilia Alión Ribera del Duero DO 2022
Vega Sicilia Alión Ribera del Duero DO 2022
The 2020 vintage of Alión from the legendary Bodegas Vega Sicilia is once again a phenomenal feast for the senses. The Spanish cult red wine has once again received top marks from international wine critics (e.g. 94 points in the Wine Advocate, 95 points from James Suckling). And what can we say: anyone lucky enough to open a bottle of Vega Sicilia Alión will quickly join in the praise.The bouquet of the pure Tempranillo (or Tinto Fino, as the grape variety is usually called in the Ribera del Duero region) is irresistibly captivating. Complex, intense notes of blackberries, blueberries, cherries and pomegranate in a wonderful interplay with notes of cocoa and vanilla. Nuances of violets and a subtle minerality round off the bouquet. Suckling comments on the bouquet of the Alión 2020: "Ripe, dark plums and black cherries with violets, stone, coffee and graphite. Also fine notes of balsamic fruit and cocoa powder."On the palate, this outstanding creation from Vega Sicilia is dry and at the same time intensely fruity, with masterfully integrated, dense tannins. Suckling finds these idiosyncratic words: "Full-bodied and juicy with an iron fist of tannins, yet so velvety and polished. Very long, concentrated finish that shows a lot of finesse and layers." Aromas of dates, wild berries and honey complete the taste experience, which lingers for an impressively long time.The impenetrable purple-red wine comes from vines that are almost 40 years old. The Spanish red wine was matured in barriques for around 15 months. Bodegas y Viñedos Alión itself recommends enjoying the Tempranillo at a drinking temperature of 18 degrees. It is a fantastic accompaniment to high-quality beef or lamb. Also ideal with game dishes. Bottled in May 2022, the Alión 2020 has a cellaring potential of up to 20 years.
