R. López de Heredia
Viña Tondonia Reserva 2011
A Very Traditional Rioja
Deep ruby red with a garnet rim.
On the nose you get dark fruits, earth, mushroom, vanilla and a whisper of smoke.
On the palate it is still tight, you get dark berries, aged leather, well-integrated tannins, well balanced acidity, and fine spices.
A finish is of fresh fruit as well as earthy notes.
