Bodegas Alejandro Fernandez Tinto Pesquera Reserva Ribera del Duero

Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero

Vintage: 1996
Description: 94 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar. Very bright ruby-red. Superripe, sappy aromas of black raspberry, cassis, black cherry, chocolate, mint and minerals. Great sweetness and almost painful flavor intensity in the mouth; utterly primary yet lush and accessible. This is still a baby but is already compelling. Has fruit of steel. Finishes with superb, subtle persistence and firm but fine tannins that spread out over the entire palate. (11/1999) 90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. The dense plum-colored 1996 Reserva exhibits an ostentatious bouquet of smoky oak, earth, tobacco, licorice, and jammy red and black fruits. Full-bodied, thick, rich, and mouthfilling, this opulent wine possesses structure as well as tannin. However, it is delicious already. (8/2001).
