Pesquera Reserva (Ribera del Duero, Spain 1997) |
£27.50 |

| A rare treat indeed from the incomparable Ribera del Duero region, the arid outpost of northern Spain . Expect intense purple fruit from the Tinto Fino grape in this stunning Reserva which sets it apart from the Riojan reds. The Pesquera bodega is found just a stones throw away from the Vega Sicilia vineyards, the long acknowledged premier wine in the whole of Spain . Nectar in a glass! LB |
