LOPEZ DE HEREDIA Rioja Blanco 'Vina Tondonia' Reserva - Haro 2012 Bottle 12.5%abv

Description

Vina Tondonia Blanco is one of Spain's most extraordinary and distinctive white wines. Produced from 90% Viura and 10% Malvasia Riojana then aged six years in cask and another six years in bottle before release. The wine is incredibly complex, with notes of beeswax, white currant, and saddle leather. The palate is dense and textured but always has the zest of acidity, which frames this wine for its long ageing potential. This newly released current vintage of this esteemed producer's famed white reserva has arrived! A fresh and complex nose of floral notes, pear, and stone fruits. The results of bottle aging are felt on the palate: wet rocks, white flowers, and earthy notes abound, and nuanced, savory mushroom flavors dance along with yellow pears and dried apples. Sip and savor with lemon pepper wings like a true Atlanta wine aficionado.
