R. López de Heredia 'Viña Tondonia' 1970 Rioja Gran Reserva

A Tempranillo dominant blend from the northern Spanish DOC of Rioja; Matured in oak barrels for a period well in excess of the requirements to qualify for a Gran Reserva.

An interesting note - when the term \"Gran Reserva\" was 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.
