- Lopez de Heredia Rioja Viña Tondonia Reserva 2011JS95WA94$49.98Availability:In Stock
95 Points! A traditional beauty that effuses iron, warm earth and savory tobacco leaves, together with plums, spices and orange zest. This is juicy and still tight, with firm but savory tannins. Medium-weight and quite zesty in texture, as is the case with the other López de Heredia reds tasted this session. Drink now or hold. - JamesSuckling.com
94 Points! The 2011 Viña Tondonia Reserva is darker and shows riper fruit, a rounder palate and some dusty tannins. A year of ripeness, concentration and tannin, the wine is powerful with the finesse of Tondonia. Tasting this next to the textbook 2010 Tondonia revealed how this has more muscle and a wider back and the 2010 epitomizes the finesse and elegance. - Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com

- Orto Vins Montsant Pallel 2011WA92Special Price $59.98 Regular Price $90.00Availability:In StockThe translucent 2011 Palell, the Garnacha Peluda from a vineyards planted in 1950 on a steep slope shows bright cherry fruit, balsamic aromas and comes through as quite fresh for a very ripe and warm year.
