Parker about Ribera del Duero Alenza 1995
A sensational effort, the 1995 Alenza reveals a youthfulness that belies its age. A deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by scents of damp earth, melted licorice, black currants, and spicy wood. Full-bodied and rich with substantial tannin, it is just beginning to hit its apogee, and should drink well for another decade. There are 2,000 cases of the Alenza, named after both Alejandro and his wife, Esperenza. Aged 30 months in primarily new American oak, it is, as Alejandro said, “a wine for traditionsists.”

Ribera del Duero Alenza 1995
Alejandro Fernández's Ribera del Duero Alenza 1995 is a remarkable wine from one of Spain's most famous and respected wine regions. Considered one of the pioneers of the Ribera del Duero, Alejandro Fernández is known for his wines, which embody both power and elegance, reflecting the region's terroir in every bottle. His winery, Pesquera, is widely recognized for its high-quality wine production and has played a key role in bringing the Ribera del Duero wine region to international attention.
The Alenza 1995 showcases the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of Alejandro Fernández. Made from the typical Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) grape variety, with a small percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon or other international grape varieties, this wine was aged under careful conditions to achieve optimal maturity and complexity.
In the glass, the Alenza 1995 has a deep red, almost garnet color, reflecting its maturity and structure. On the nose, the wine unfolds an intense bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as plums, blackberries, and cherries, paired with spicy notes of tobacco, cedarwood, and vanilla, which come from the oak barrel aging. A subtle minerality and hints of leather and herbs add further complexity.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, with well-integrated tannins that have developed a velvety texture over the years. The fruit aromas remain concentrated, and the spicy notes of wood and spices are harmoniously integrated. The finish is long and persistent, with a fine minerality and a hint of roasted aromas that round out the tasting experience.
