Was surprised by the vivacity and overall performance of this wine at this age. Well integrated and matured, soft and shining.
Magnificent. — 6 days ago

Show stopper. 59 years old and still providing an amazing experience. Never faded during our tasting. Elegant nose and complex mouth with a long, lingering finish. — 7 days ago

This was perfect right from the bottle to a 20 minute decant. I felt like an angel baby swatted in cotton candy after drinking this one. Paired with meats and dishes at Bazaar in Washington DC. — a day ago

Cork went backwards into the bottle, but was intact. Lovely medium-red color, faint bricking on edge, dried red fruits, subtle American oak, very suave on the palate, yet still shows some tannic grip into the long, lingering finish, I’ve long adored these 1980s/early 1990s Pesquera “regular” Ribera del Duero tintos, which avoided the much more lavishly oaked Janus Riserva cuvée, and most amazingly, how long these $18-20 regular cuvées will age!! — 19 days ago

Expressive nose of dark cherries, blackberries, clove, strawberry, a hint of caramel, well integrated oak. In the mouth the tannins are still harsh, thinner Ribera (this is Soria, they filmed Dr Zhivago here). Drunk too young (the story of my life) — 12 days ago
