Pesquera Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 1989

Opened with the help of a Durand; cork was 4/5 saturated but did its job! Color looked fantastic so I poured slowly into a wide bottom decanter and enjoyed over the course of three hours. The 1989 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core and a slightly orange rim; medium viscosity with light staining of the tears and some light sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated red and black fruit: black cherry, fig, brambles, leather, mushrooms, cedar box, earth, cool and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin (integrated) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and slightly savory. This was a lovely showing by a perfectly cellared bottle. Drink now through 2029.

Tinto Pesquera Reserva Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2019

Delectable Wine
9.2

The 2019 Pesquera Reserva is a 100% Tempranillo from Pesquera del Duero, aged for 14 months in American oak barrels. Garnet-red in hue. Presents blackberry and plum aromas with vanilla and oak undertones. The palate is dry and juicy, featuring taut, reactive tannins contributing to a velvety, medium-bodied texture. Bold right now, it should mellow with age. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, November 2023)
