WA – March 23, 2023
2013 was a very tough vintage when they had to discard up to 100,000 kilograms of grapes and production of most of the wines was lower; it’s also the year when their father died, and they were very encouraged to make very good wines. The 2013 Viña Cubillo Tinto Crianza is the entry-level red from that year, the cooler of the shortlist of 2013, 2014 and 2015 I tasted next to each other. The wine is more austere even within the style they say is their wine for the by-the-glass market. It’s classical and developed with a polished palate after three years in barrel. It overdelivers for the conditions of the year.

Enticing aromas of blackberries, leather and cedar with some dried flowers follow through to a medium to full body with firm tannins and a fresh, citrusy finish. Very traditional and real. Drink now

Lopez de Heredia

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

Rioja Alta

The Rioja Alta wine region, situated in northern Spain, is a renowned and picturesque area known for its exceptional wines.
