100% Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero, Castilla Leon, Spain

Vintage: 2013
Winery: Bodegas Alejandro Fernandez
Description: Notes from the Winemaker:. This wine has finesse and strength and is a wonderful example of the true elegance that can be obtained when Tempranillo is aged over time in bottle. Tasting Notes:. Tinto Pesquera's Reserva contains notes of chocolate-covered cherries, red roes, toasted wood and anise. Rich and vibrant on the palate, with well-integrated tannins and a formidable finish. Winemaking Notes:. Close to 50% of fruit is dropped each year before harvest and all vineyard blocks are vinified separately in small stainless steel tanks in order to ensure optimum wine quality. Alcoholic fermentation takes place between 6-10 days at an average temperature of 20-25°C. Finished wine is aged for 24 months in fine grain, 225- and 300-liter neutral American oak barrels with a light-to-medium toast. Barrels are racked four times during the first twelve months and an additional 2-3 times during the second year of aging. With the Fernández family dedicated to natural winemaking, all wines produced by Alejandro Fernández are neither filtered nor fined before bottling. Upon completion of barrel aging, the Tinto Pesquera Reserva is then aged for a minimum of twelve months in bottle before it is released to the market. Technical Info: 100% Tempranillo. Acidity 4.6 g/L. Alcohol 14.0%.
