2006 Lopez de Heredia Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja

 

Smart man

An acquired taste M. 

Bought 4, opened one tonight, ordered 3 more. It’s more open to drink and more ripe flavours than the 04 or 01.

Similar thing happened to me 2 months ago. Purchased two, drank one, purchased two more the next day.  Probably the best young Tondonia Reserva I’ve had.

Recently...

2 x 2013 B. Levet “La Chavaroche”

2 x 2016 B. Levet “La Chavaroche” 

1998 Chapoutier Le Pavilion

2006 Chapoutier Le Pavilion 

2016 Jean Foillard Morgon “Corcelette”

2 x 2017 Merry Edwards Sauvignon Blanc 

Yeah I think it’s more ready to drink than the other recent vintages. Comparable to 2005 in its approachability.
