Sweet fruit and lead pencil notes dominate this wine, whose brightness and liveliness promise decades of potential. Ancient vines and great know-how to ensure that Tondonia always delivers the goods. We do not know of a more consistent wine in existence, though 2008 is considered a standout at this address.

Tasting Notes

James Suckling, 94 pts

Taking on a balsamic and high-toned wood character to the ripe fruit on the nose. Some dried cheese and ripe fruit, too. Medium-bodied with integrated tannins that are polished and fine. Goes on for minutes. A beautiful, traditional wine, as always. Drink or hold
