Wines from the winery Bodegas Alión

The Alión story began in 1986, when the Álvarez family decided to create a winery which, with its own vineyards, was to produce a wine with a philosophy and an identity different and independent from that of Bodegas Vega Sicilia. Thus, the possibility of making the wine in the Vega Sicilia installations was discarded. The Álvarez did not wish to create a brand that might be considered as a second wine from the mythical name.

Bodegas Liceo, a company founded in 1990 and located in... Peñafiel (Valladolid), had all the technological requirements sought by Vega Sicilia. After lengthy conversations, the Álvarez family acquired the winery on 5th November 1992.
1995 saw the appearance of the first Alión wine of the 1991 harvest, and its high quality makes it into the Top 100 of the prestigious Wine Spectator magazine.
