Bodegas Alejandro Fernández
Pesquera Ribera del Duero Tempranillo
Ribera del Duero, Castilla y León, Spain
Made from 100% Tempranillo from vines aging between 20 and 40 years old. Deep Ruby with aromas of Berry fruits and fragrant smoky oak. On the palate cherry and blackberry flavors with vanilla and cacao. Well balanced with acidity and approachable fine tannins. The wine needs a few years to pop but great now. On the finish the fruit comes through with mineral tones on a long finish.

Despite the oak sticking out a little, this is surprisingly restrained, with bright red fruit and enough acidity to carry the day. A little bretty, too, but I'm down for that.

Structure of a Bordeaux with Spanish flair and a great value.

A sweet red wine with good body and medium tannins, vanilla nose and strawberry and wood flavors; not too complex but good overall

Dark fruit, soft tannins. Good enough to serve guests. A nice, not great, wine. Will buy it again.
