Viña Tondonia Tinto Reserva 2009
Description
De nouveau un millésime où le vin est intemporel. Ce Rioja réunit les conditions idéales pour devenir un Gran Reserva à l'avenir. Nous verrons donc d'ici 20 ans ce rouge sur le marché afficher le bandeau bleu. On distingue son caractéristique long vieillissement en fût et son repos en bouteille, qui reflète le savoir-faire de la marque pour obtenir des vins rouges suaves, ronds, bien développés et avec un beau potentiel de garde. Un vin classique qui ne laissera personne indifférent et qui provient d'un millésime qualifié comme Très Bon, où la vendange a été abondante et sans contretemps significatifs.

L'avis des experts
Sweet berries, cherries, cedar and dried flowers on the nose. Some lemon and lime zest, too! Medium-to full-bodied with tight, integrated tannins that show wonderful length and reserve. So fresh and vivid. Lots of energy. A wonderful, classic wine. Drink or hold.
Serious and concentrated, at least by the standards of some López de Heredia reds, this reflects the heat of the 2009 vintage. Tempranillo-based with 30% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo, it's spicy, savoury and high toned with grippy tannins, layers of tobacco and red fruits and classic, supporting acidity. 2021-30
As with many wines this time, I had two vintages to taste of the Reserva from the Tondonia vineyard, 2009 and 2008, two very different, almost opposite vintages. 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.
