The 2011 Viña Tondonia Reserva is darker and shows riper fruit, a rounder palate and some dusty tannins. A year of ripeness, concentration and tannin, the wine is powerful with the finesse of Tondonia. Tasting this next to the textbook 2010 Tondonia revealed how this has more muscle and a wider back and the 2010 epitomizes the finesse and elegance. 270,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2019.
The 2010 Viña Tondonia Reserva has all I expect from a Reserva from Tondonia, complexity, elegance and evolution, a developed nose with notes of forest floor and wild berries, herbs and flowers, a touch of iodine, brick dust and very fine, polished tannins. It has the seriousness and elegance of Tondonia.
The 2009 Viña Tondonia Reserva, a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Mazuelo and Graciano, matured in used American oak barrels for six years. It has some toasted character, with ripe fruit, black rather than red, denoting a warm year but more restrained than the Bosconia Reserva from the same vintage. 2009 is a year of ripeness, concentration, and tannin; the wines are powerful, but here you see the finesse of Tondonia in comparison to the more rustic Viña Bosconia.
The nose of the 2008 Viña Tondonia Reserva is very elegant, fresh and with an herbal twist, starting to show the complexity of the aged wines that are sometimes still too young when they are released 10+ years from the vintage! The palate is medium-bodied, with lightness and depth, very classical with extra freshness and all that is needed for a long development in bottle. This is the more Tondonia of the two vintages I tasted side by side. There are notes of maple syrup, smoke, licorice, and crisp fruit. The palate is more austere, crunchy and reveals the chalkiness of the soils. There's more definition and precision here.
Following the appreciation of the 2007 vintage from María José López de Heredia, the red 2007 Viña Tondonia Reserva is showing great, revealing unusual finesse and elegance. The nose is a little reticent but nuanced and complex, a little shy rather than explosive. The palate is medium-bodied, and the tannins are very refined. This has to be one of the finest vintages of Viña Tondonia Reserva of recent years.
The 2005 Viña Tondonia Reserva is a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho, 5% Graciano and 5% Mazuelo from their vineyards in the meander of the Ebro River, where they have some 100 hectares of vineyards. The wine fermented in the original oak vats that are now some 140 years of age. It's clean and complex, with more freshness. The wine is very spicy and with a palate that feels very balanced, livelier than in the past. It has a long finish where the flavours are clean. Easy to drink and very pleasurable.

R. López de Heredia is one of the oldest and most revered wineries in La Rioja, Spain, renowned for its traditional winemaking practices and exceptional wines that are a true reflection of the region’s terroir. Founded in 1877 by Rafael López de Heredia y Landeta, the winery has remained in the family for four generations, with the current management under María José López de Heredia, among other family members.

Located in the town of Haro, López de Heredia is one of the pillars of the classic Rioja style. The winery is famous for its meticulous aging process, utilizing its vast underground cellars to age wines for much longer than most other producers in the region. Their approach includes extended barrel aging and additional years of bottle aging before release, which is significantly longer than required by Rioja's wine laws.

The portfolio includes iconic wines like Viña Tondonia, Viña Bosconia, Viña Cubillo, and Viña Gravonia. Among these, Viña Tondonia is perhaps the most famous, coming from a spectacular vineyard on the banks of the Ebro River. These wines are known for their elegance, complexity, and remarkable ability to age, developing deep, nuanced flavors over decades.

López de Heredia's wines are distinctive for their traditional vinification methods, including fermentation in large, old oak vats and the refusal to filter wines. The winery also maintains a cooperage on site, one of the few remaining in the region, where they craft and repair their own oak barrels.

The philosophy at López de Heredia centers on a deep respect for heritage, a commitment to quality, and an unyielding dedication to producing wines that speak to the soul of La Rioja. Their wines are celebrated worldwide for embodying the timeless appeal and finesse of old-world Rioja.

La Rioja er uden tvivl Spaniens mest prestigefyldte vinregion, internationalt kendt for sine vine af høj kvalitet, især dens raffinerede rødvine. Beliggende i det nordlige Spanien, nyder regionen godt af et varieret klima, der spænder fra de køligere, vådere atlantiske påvirkninger i vest til de varmere, tørrere middelhavspåvirkninger i øst, hvor Ebro-floden spiller en afgørende rolle i moderering af klimaet. De kantabriske bjerge udgør også en barriere mod barske vejrforhold fra nord.

Regionen er bedst kendt for sine robuste, egelagrede rødvine primært fremstillet af Tempranillo-druen, som er rygraden i La Riojas vinproduktion. Andre druer som Garnacha (Grenache), Graciano og Mazuelo (Carignan) spiller også biroller i blandingerne. Rioja-vine klassificeres i flere kategorier baseret på deres aldringsproces: Rioja (den yngste), Crianza, Reserva og Gran Reserva, hvor de to sidstnævnte kræver flere års lagring i egetræsfade og flasker før frigivelse.

La Rioja er opdelt i tre underregioner: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavisa og Rioja Oriental (tidligere kendt som Rioja Baja). Hvert område bringer sine unikke egenskaber til vinene. Rioja Alta er kendt for sine gammeldags vine med en balance mellem struktur og syre; Rioja Alavesa producerer vine med en fyldig og aromatisk profil på grund af sin kalkstenrige jord; Rioja Oriental, der er varmere, giver typisk vine, der er rigere og mere intenst farvede.

Regionens engagement i kvalitet og tradition kombineret med innovationer inden for vinfremstillingsteknikker sikrer, at La Rioja fortsætter med at producere vine, der værdsættes globalt for deres dybde, kompleksitet og levetid. De maleriske landskaber med vindækkede bakker og historiske bodegaer (vinkældre) gør også La Rioja til et populært rejsemål for vinturisme.
