Tinto Pesquera Reserva, Ribera del Duero, Spain 2019 Wachenheim cream and candied gingerA powerful, full bodied Ribera del Duero showing plenty of roasted spices and a hint of chili chocolate to the rich blackberries. Quite flavorful and powerful but still fresh on the full bodied palate coated by sinewy tannins. Long and compact. A little chewy now, but should improve and soften more in the next three years. Better in 2026. 93 Pts James Suckling
