López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Tinto Reserva 2010, crafted in Spain’s Rioja, is a Tempranillo-driven blend with Garnacha, Graciano, and Mazuelo from the estate’s limestone and clay terroir. The bouquet reveals blackberry, cassis, and red cherry, with notes of tobacco, spice, and subtle oak, accented by hints of minerality. The palate is medium-bodied and elegant, with silky tannins and vibrant acidity balancing the concentrated fruit. Six years of American oak aging and extended bottle aging deliver a refined, lingering finish with excellent aging potential. Perfect for pairing with roasted lamb, cured meats, or aged cheeses, this wine reflects López de Heredia’s traditional winemaking, offering a sophisticated experience for Rioja enthusiasts. Its elegance and complexity make it a standout from the 2010 vintage.
