López de Heredia "Viña Tondonia" Rioja Gran Reserva

Viña Tondonia, Rioja Alta, Rioja, Spain

Varietal(s): Tempranillo, Garnacho, Graciano and Mazuelo (Cariñena)

This was aromatic, floral, perfumed, elegant and nuanced. Complex notes of forest floor, truffle, wild herbs, spices and mushrooms and a touch of iodine. This is velvety, with super elegant tannins and a supple finish. It has clout and persistence, but there's also something ethereal about it. It's full of energy, light and power. This should be almost eternal. Bravo!
