Lot #562. R. López de Heredia Rioja Blanco Reserva Viña Tondonia 1989

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 93 VM.
"Medium gold. An impressively complex bouquet evokes ripe pear, peach, floral honey, beeswax and hazelnut, with building minerality adding complexity. Weighty and ripe but with an unlikely freshness, showing deep, focused orchard and pit fruit qualities and undercurrents of stony minerals and toasted nuts. Firm and pleasingly dry on the finish, which is striking for its depth, energy and sappiness." Vinous, Jul 2007
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $50
