Lopez de Heredia Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva Rioja 1970
Lopez de Heredia Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva Rioja 1970
Lopez de Heredia is one of the classics of Rioja. This is still owned by the same family who founded it in the late 1800's and they continue to make wine in the same manner it was at that time. This is truly an opportunity to look back in time in the wine world. And the 1970 is truly a legendary wine in the wine world in general.
In 2012, Neal Martin of The Wine Advocate wrote, "The 1970 Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva has a wonderful bouquet that transports you directly to the vineyard: scents of gravel, wild mushroom, cherries and dusty attic. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine tannins and thrilling, almost rapier-like acidity. There are notes of decayed red berry fruit, sour lemon, rosemary and sage. The finish is rustic but so full of energy, with hints of orange peel on the finish. Wonderful. Drink now-2020+." and gave it 97 points.
