The Wine
I first tasted the gems of Lopez de Heredia at a "Wine & Spirits Top 100” tasting in San Francisco. This impressive event features the top producers from around the world, selected by the team at Wine & Spirits Magazine using a double-blind format to assure objectivity.
Of all the amazing wines I tasted that night, the Heredia wines were standouts (I’ll always remember their 1961 white wine, a marvel like no other I’ve tasted. Current bottle price? Just over a grand). Yes, these are wines that age well, grown by Spain’s top producer who is, frankly, a bit mystified and humbled by their global stardom and stratospheric scores, as they’ve been producing the same wine, in the same way, for generations.
The 2011 vintage in Rioja produced wines that lean towards elegance and finesse.
