Vina Tondonia White Rioja Reserva Bodega Lopez Heredia – 2003

This wine has been referred to as “the last bastion of classic Spanish whites” and comes from the producer’s top vineyard – Tondonia. It is a blend of 90% Viura and 10% Malvasia from vines which yield less than 25% of the average in Rioja! With its deep golden colour, bone dry fruit and intense acidity, and wonderful richness from its lengthy maturation in old oak casks, this is truly great white Rioja.
