1980 Vina Tondonia Tinto Gran Reserva, Rioja
Posted: 15:47 Sat 31 May 2014
From Bodegas Lopez de Heredia. Pale and attractive rose colour, only 20% opaque. Little on the nose other some vanilla; a bit peculiar. Very soft and gentle on the palate with plenty of fragrant fruit. The tannins are much less obvious than the 1981 vintage. More delicate and refined. 90/100. Drunk 06-May-14.
