product Details

Viña Tondonia 2004 Rioja Reserva

Tempranillo dominant blend from the northern Spanish DOC of Rioja; Matured in oak barrels for 6 years.

An interesting note is that when the terms "Reserva" and "Gran Reserva" were defined in the 1970s, the owner of Viña Tondonia, Don Pedro López Heredia, objected on the grounds that the new terms were too lenient - even his most basic wine far exceeding the "Gran Reserva" requirements - and so refused to use the new classifications on his labels.

Important Notice

We would recommend viewing/close inspection prior to placing any bids. If this is not an option and you have questions beyond the offered description and images, please contact us for a more in-depth condition report. Otherwise lots will be sold as seen in the images.

Please note: Due to the various ages of bottles and their seals, condition of liquid is at the buyer's discretion and no claim can be lodged against failure/leakage in transit.
