Vina Tondonia Rioja Reserva 2012
A beautifully refined Rioja, aged for six and a half years in French oak barrels, showing a fresh and delicate nose with subtle hints of vanilla and smoky, earthy notes. The palate is a real treat—aromatic and layered, with a silky smooth texture and perfectly balanced tannins. You'll pick up juicy flavors of ripe blackberry, cassis, and cherry, complemented by a touch of damson plum. The oak influence is subtle but brings in lovely hints of tobacco, black pepper, and soft leather, leading to a long, satisfying finish. It’s drinking beautifully now and has great potential for further ageing.
95/100 Wine Advocate Points"The 2012 Viña Tondonia Reserva comes from a very dry year, with 25% less rain than the average (at the time), resulting in lower yields of very healthy grapes that delivered wines with nice balance between alcohol and polyphenols, making it very apt for the aging in barrel. It had a slightly longer élevage in barrel, six years. The wine is aromatic with a developed profile, spicy and tertiary (forest floor, a touch of brick dust and iodine), complex and nuanced. The palate is full and round, with polished tannins and a long, dry finish. It has a textbook Tondonia nose and profile" Luis Gutierrez Wine Advocate
