2009 Vina Tondonia Tinto, Reserva, Bodegas R. Lopez de Heredia, Rioja, Spain
HoldWell stockedLuis Gutiérrez 93/100
Light bright amber-hued orange. Mineral- and spice-accented red currant and cherry scents, joined by building herb and floral nuances. Shows impressive depth and energy to the bitter cherry, succulent herb, spice cake and blood orange flavours, which turn sweeter as the wine stretches out. Finishes extremely long and chewy, with resonating floral and red fruit character and a lingering suggestion of fennel. Aged in neutral American oak barrels for four years and racked twice a year.
