Ribera del Duero - Spain

Philosophy 

Pesquera Original by Alejandro Fernandez

Alejandro Fernandez, who in 1975, pioneered and revolutionized the Ribera del Duero offers again a unique opportunity: to recreate, together with his daughter Eva, the ORIGINAL Pesquera 2017, the ORIGINAL by Alejandro Fernandez. A wine that follows the unmistakable character of its Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo), producing wines loaded with black fruit, well structured but without the hardness of new wood as in other more modern Riberas. At 88 years old and together with his winemaker daughter Eva, Alejandro Fernandez continues thrilling us by launching what is perhaps the most unique Pesquera of all those he has produced, Pesquera ORIGINAL by Alejandro Fernandez.

Soil 

Pesquera Original by Alejandro Fernandez
The unique climatic conditions that characterize the cultivation of the vines in Ribera del Duero have a major influence on the growth cycle and play a fundamental role in both the development of the plant and the ripening of the grapes. The quality of the resulting wines depends to a large extent on these exceptional conditions. The vineyard consists of sandy-clay soils and limestone.

Tasty and fleshy taste, aftertaste and touch of polished, broad and fleshy tannic expression. Easy and seductive. Long and proud, impeccable ending.
