  1. WA

    The 2009 Viña Bosconia Reserva shows the ripeness of the very warm and dry year. It’s structured and concentrated, quite different from the finesse of the Tondonia. Bosconia has always been more rustic and powerful and Tondonia all about finesse and nuance. There are dark plums and baking spices, a touch of singed leather, the fruit very strong to counterbalance the aging in barrel. This is a powerful Bosconia.

  2. JS

    Very ripe still, with crushed berry and light jam. Vanilla undertones to the fruit. Turns to flowers, both fresh and dried. Complex cedar, tobacco and walnut. It’s full-bodied with round, soft tannins and a flavorful finish. Richer than past vintages, but turns linear and refined at the finish. Drink now.

R. López de Heredia Viña Tondonia stands as an iconic Rioja producer, a beacon of traditional winemaking excellence. Established in 1877, its reputation is firmly rooted in its steadfast commitment to time-honored methods. Central to this legacy is the Tondonia vineyard, sprawled across 100 hectares beside the Ebro river, its soil a marriage of alluvial clay and limestone that nourishes the Tempranillo and Garnacha vines. The acclaimed López de Heredia Gran Reserva, the flagship offering, epitomizes their artistry. Aged for a decade in oak barrels, it showcases the harmonious blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Mazuelo. The Reserva, enriched with Graciano, matures for six years. Viña Tondonia's white wines, the Gran Reserva and Reserva, mirror this process, crafted from Viura and a... Read More
The term "Red Blend" refers to red wines that are crafted from unusual or uncommon grape varieties or combinations thereof. It is also a convenient label for wines whose specific blend is either unknown or undisclosed. While these rare red-wine blends are typically intricate, many of them adhere to specific patterns.

By incorporating their local signature grape alongside a basic Cabernet-Merlot blend, various regions have successfully expanded the appeal of their wines while still maintaining a distinct regional character. In Italy, this is accomplished by utilizing local specialties like Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and even the unique Lagrein from Trentino. In Austria, this is achieved with grapes like Zweigelt or...
