Ribera del Duero Janus Gran Reserva 1994

The Ribera del Duero Janus Gran Reserva 1994 from Pesquera is an exclusive, limited edition that combines the best of the renowned Pesquera winery and the exceptional characteristics of the 1994 vintage. Janus represents exceptional maturity and complexity, making this wine a truly special treat. In the glass, it displays a dense, deep ruby red color with light brown reflections, reflecting its over two decades of aging.
The nose unfolds with a lush, complex bouquet that combines ripe black fruits such as blackberries and black currants with elegant spicy notes of cinnamon, cloves, and a hint of vanilla. The long aging in American and French oak barrels imparts additional complex aromas of tobacco, leather, and delicate roasted notes that harmonize beautifully with the fruit flavors.
On the palate, the Janus Gran Reserva 1994 displays impressive structure with silky yet powerful tannins that lend the wine depth and longevity. Ripe fruit aromas are accompanied by spicy and slightly earthy notes, while oak aging brings gentle vanilla and cedar nuances. Its well-preserved acidity lends it freshness and balance, while the long, elegant finish leaves complex aromas of ripe fruit, spices, and subtle balsamic notes.
This exceptional wine is a masterpiece that perfectly embodies the essence of Ribera del Duero and has reached its best drinking maturity, with the potential for many more years of aging.
