Alejandro Fernandez Tinto Pesquera Crianza 2008, Do Ribera Del Duero

2018/19

August 2019.....had with lamb skewers while Erin was in town....good wine but a little on the ordinary side, nothing exceptional. Would have again but would drink it earlier in its life cycle.

Great looking bottle as a gift!

Love this wine, confident others will enjoy as well. Can drink with almost any food but love it best with Mediterranean cuisine, especially chicken. Smooth, flavourful, inviting.

2023+2024+2025/6 + 3 as gifts

Sept 2022....Smitty's cottage, first wine served with Mushroom rissoto at Wendy's. Was nice but had small edges, not as smooth as I believe the 2014 was. Perhaps another year in the bottle or some aeration.
