Zamora

Our notes:

Alejandro Fernández (of Pesquera and Condado de Haza fame) and his wife Esperanza Rivera, having created Tinto Pesquera and Condado de Haza in their native Ribera del Duero, looked farther a field in the Spring of 1998, purchasing this grand agricultural estate bordering the Guareña River in the province of Zamora, in the heart of one of Spain's earliest-recognized wine regions. As with Fernández wines in the Ribera del Duero, the fully extracted must undergoes malolactic fermentation in new oak (in this case some French oak), and a meticulous racking and aging program accomplishes a natural clarification. The wines are effectively Gran Reserva, having aged for at least 24 months in cask.

These are some of the most exciting wines in the Fernadez stable.

What the critics are saying:

Robert Parker, 88-90 points, outstanding: "The finest vintage to date here appears to be the elegant, dense ruby/purple-colored 2001. Sumptuous aromas of blackberries, black cherries, mocha, and chocolate are followed by an impressively constructed, rich, flavorful, medium to full-bodied wine with well-integrated, supple tannin. Long and rich, it should drink well for 5-6 years. This is an excellent value."
