Natalie's Score: 95/100

López de Heredia Viña Tondonia 2009 is the big family dinner size (1500 ml) of this full-bodied Reserva from the Rioja wine region. The 2009 Viña Tondonia Reserva is a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Mazuelo and Graciano, matured in neutral American oak barrels for six years. Look for ripe dark berry, cherry, dried florals and cedar spice flavours bright and finishing long on the palate. Drink or hold.

Food pairings: hard cheeses, roast pork, vegetarian pizza.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
