1994 Bodegas Alejandro Fernández Pesquera Gran Reserva Janus

Janus is a Gran Reserva cuvee produced only in the best years... 1982, 1986, 1991, 1994, 1995 and 2003 so far, and sourced from best Viña Alta parcels.

Irresistible, pluperfectly aged red and blue fruit. Beautifully complex, lush mid palate with burnished tannins. Lengthy finish with hints of cedar, leather and tobacco. 

What a beautiful example of aged Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero. Paired beautifully with steak enchiladas.

Excellent article on vigneron Alejandro Fernández:
