2005 Bodegas Fernandez Rivera Dehesa La Granja - Castilla y Leon Red Wine

Created by Alejandro Fernandez, the winemaker behind the famed Tinto Pesquera from Ribera del Duero. Strongly recommended for those of you who love cedar and leather aromas in your wine.

The Wine Advocate gave it 91 points: "The 2005 Dehesa la Granja, from a top-flight vintage, displays an inviting perfume of cedar, Asian spices, a hint of balsamic, licorice, and assorted black fruits. This is followed by a sweetly-fruited, well-proportioned wine with a friendly personality. It is approachable now but is likely to evolve for another 2-3 years. Drink this outstanding value from 2013 to 2020+."
