Robert Parker (92)

The 2012 Alceno Premium, produced with Syrah grapes with 15% Monastrell from stony, calcareous soils, is a selection of 50 barrels which aged in barrique for six months. Purple-colored, clean, fresh, expressive, with notes of smoky bacon, some peat, wood well-integrated, supple, balanced and with good acidity. It reminds me of a Mediterranean rendition of a Crozes-Hermitage. Clean and delineated. Silky texture integrated. 20,000 bottles. It represents good value and a good balance between youth and complexity. I’d drink it on the young side, to enjoy the exuberance of its fruit. Drink 2013-2016.

This 100% Syrah is driven by the sunshine with ripe, plump aromas of red-fruits jam, dry herbs and spice as well as being slightly tarry. The wine is dense, concentrated and is sweetish in the mouth. But it does not suggest Syrah is better suited to the region than Monastrell.
