About this wine

Viña Tondonia Reserva Tinto 2011 is a Tempranillo-based blend matured for extended periods in old American oak, followed by long bottle ageing in the bodega’s labyrinthine cellars. The 2011 vintage is noted for greater ripeness and concentration, giving darker fruit and more muscle while preserving the finesse that defines Tondonia. Expect aromas of ripe red and black berries, tobacco, leather and warm earth, with a structured but elegant palate and persistent, savoury finish. This is a serious, ageworthy Reserva that drinks beautifully now but will continue to evolve.

Tasting Note

Gutiérrez describes the 2011 as darker and riper with a rounder palate and dusty tannins, powerful yet still displaying the finesse of Tondonia, with more “muscle” compared to the textbook 2010.

In the glass

Medium garnet with a s/Light tawny rim.

In the nose

Ripe red and black berries, tobacco leaf, dried orange peel, leather and earthy spice.

On the palate

Medium-bodied with ripe fruit, firm but fine tannins, lively acidity and a long, savoury, slightly smoky finish.
