2012 Vina Tondonia Tinto Reserva

A masterpiece of traditional Rioja art: the Viña Tondonia Tinto Reserva 2012 from López de Heredia is a prime example of timeless elegance, precision craftsmanship and decades of ageing. Made from the best plots of the famous Viña Tondonia vineyard and matured for over six years in old oak barrels, this wine develops a complex interplay of aromas of dried cherries, leather, cedar wood, tobacco and fine vanilla. The texture is silky, the acidity lively, the tannins perfectly integrated - a wine that tells a story and fascinates with every glass. With over a decade of ageing in the bottle, the 2012 already shows great class, but also has further potential for development. An icon of Rioja Alta and a safe choice for connoisseurs and collectors.

Food Pairing (Food recommendation): Ideal with braised lamb, Iberian pork, duck breast with mushroom jus or mature Manchego. The wine also unfolds its aromatic depth and silky structure with truffle dishes or game ragout. A classic - for big plates and big moments.
