non-sweet dark toffee

The 2018 Alión follows the path of the 2016

Very good – excellent clarity

It has a powerful aromatic intensity with white flowers

class and impressively persistent finish

I very much like the sophisticated texture of the mid palate that contrasts markedly with the slightly drying and lean finale. I would observe that this was carrying quite a bit of gas, which has the effect of accentuating dryness so its quite possible that the austerity of the finish will become less apparent once the wine is bottled.
