Starting with your appearance at 6:00 audio is not synchronized with video. I already noticed that in other recent videos as well. Tried to watch on several devices to be sure.
Tondonia Reserva probably one of the best C/P ratio wine out there, I already drank 2 cases of 2011 this year and keep going to buy more. it's a fantastic wine for the money.
Thanks for sharing about this iconic wine. I am curious to know how it compares to a wine that I have waiting in the wings: 2015 La Rioja Alta Vina Ardanza Reserva.
I had this wine about six months ago and I rated it 92 points also. It was my first time drinking the Tondonia. It was so different then my usual Bordeaux that I had a hard time deciding if I liked the wine or not. It kind of like a mixture of pinot noir and grenache in lighter to medium body and concentration feel to me. I may have to buy another bottle and try it again.
tommy: I agree. Very different from Bordeaux. Lighter in terms of intensity and more savoury/not as fruity so you have to get accustomed to the taste. Please like, subscribe and keep watching. Cheers!
I prefer the style of videos where you talk to the camera, even though I sometimes just listen to the videos, especially if I’m watching a video again to refresh my memory. I had the 2010 Vina Tondonia wine last year and to me it is good but I don’t personally get the hype besides the fact how much work has gone into the wine. I much prefer the wines from La Rioja Alta, such as their Vina Ardanza which I find more fruit forward than Vina Tondonia.
pseudo: thank you for your comments. I will do a few more videos like this and then do a poll to see what viewers prefer. For Vina Tondonia, I think it is neat to get a wine with that much age with at an affordable price. I don't think it is a top shelf Rioja but pretty good value for the price. Cheers!
Vina Tondonia is one of the best Rioja's out there. Good video, but perhaps a mix between the previous format and this one would be better. Don't become camera-shy ;) ;) [ your audio seems not to be synced with you talking ]
pedroruizgutierre68: yes, I agree. I have had the blanco and think it is a tremendous aged white wine for the price. Please like, subscribe and keep watching. Cheers!
