Pesquera Crianza 1998, from Bodegas Alejandro Fernández, is a notable expression of the Ribera del Duero region, crafted exclusively from Tempranillo grapes. The 1998 vintage is distinguished by its solid structure and potential for ageing. Aged for at least 12 months in American oak barrels, it displays a complex aromatic profile including ripe black fruits and subtle herbal notes, alongside hints of oak-derived tobacco and leather. This crianza is marked by a robust palate featuring concentrated flavours and integrated tannins. Bodegas Alejandro Fernández operates around 200 hectares of vineyards, primarily in Roa and La Horra.

Vinous
Full ruby-red. Cassis, black cherry, licorice and a dusty nuance on the nose. Rich and chewy, with good density. But currently a bit dry-edged, with the sweetness in the background. Uncompromising finish features slightly tough, toothcoating tannins. Shows the austere side of the '98 vintage.Stephen Tanzer1st November 2001
