Black cherry and pomegranate fruit, with notes of licorice, earth and spice. Beautiful wine. — a month ago
It’s hard to find fully shed classic Viura (white Rioja) anymore but old-school Lopez de Heredia clings to tradition. This wine, nearly 10 years old on release, is fascinating - aged to the point of considerable oxidation yet it retains its fruit ands acidity. Bruised apple, ripe pear, golden raisin, orange peel, flint, wet stones, and hay happily coexist with hazelnut, dried orange peel, coconut, baking spices ands more. The medium acidity is a firm foundation to a richly textured wine, Long finish too! — 19 days ago

Exuberant, floral nose, red and black fruits, medium bodied with silky resolved tannins, some meat and olive brine, layered and powerful. Spectacular showing 🤩 — 5 days ago
