Production:
A traditional Rioja made in a very traditional style, with hand harvesting and grape selection from old vines sourced from their own vineyards. It has spent 6 years in 225-litre American oak barrels, raked twice a year, fined with egg whites, bottled unfiltered, and then aged in bottle for a minimum of six months.
Tasting Notes:Light, elegant red fruit aromas; notes of spice and mineral with hints of earthiness. Smooth, forward-ripe dark fruits with a touch of vanilla, refreshing acidity, firm tannins, and excellent length. A traditional Rioja of some class.
THE WINERY
The family-owned bodega López Heredia, one of Rioja’s oldest and most traditional establishments, was founded in 1913 by Rafael López de Heredia. Three generations later, the Lopez de Heredia family continue to devote themselves to producing exceptional and unique wines. Located in the heart of the Rioja Alta region, Viña Tondonia is a beautiful vineyard and one of the most spectacular in Haro, with over 100 hectares located in a shell-like depression on the right bank of the river Ebro; the soil is alluvial clay with a high proportion of limestone. The grapes from Viña Tondonia are always used in making their highest-quality wine.
