I love B‑21 ‑ 10 stars! I don’t like that UPS is the delivery provider. I am usually never home when UPS attempts to deliver and changing the delivery has a cost associated with it, and sometime their site is difficult to navigate. This is never my experience with FedEx. It isn’t the UPS driver, the driver for my route is great. It is the UPS organization’s process.

We use several different Online wine retailers but B‑21 was new to us. We were looking for a very specific Australian wine and a specific vintage. B‑21 had what we were searching for at an excellent price. Ordered six bottles which were delivered 6 days after order confirmation. Excellent customer service and communication. We will definitely be ordering more wines from B‑21.

I very much like the convenience of B‑21's service. One complaint is that it takes longer than I am used to with other online retailers to get a confirmation, which resulted in my placing a "double order" on my recent purchase. From now on I will know to be patient.

2012 Lopez de Heredia Vina Tondonia Reserva (750ml)

Tempranillo from Rioja, Spain

B-21 Top Recommendation
Read More

Continuing our roll-out of new arrivals from the iconic Lopez de Heredia, the 2012 Viña Tondonia is every bit the standout cellar value we thought it would be from this excellent vintage.

"All you can expect from a classical Viña Tondonia with its focused intensity and muscular yet very elegant tannins." - Decanter

A rarity in Rioja, Lopez de Heredia uses only estate-grown fruit from their own vineyards, sourcing the 2012 Viña Tondonia Reserva from the spectacular 100-hectare vineyard of the same name, situated in a shell-like depression next to the river Ebro along the border of Rioja Alavesa, with vines averaging over 40 years old and some over 100. From a warm, dry vintage that resulted in ideal phenolic and physiological ripeness, the 2012 handles its six years in barrel with remarkable ease, "a beautiful old-school Rioja" of the highest caliber. There's not much we need tout about this wine, as the Tondonia's track record speaks for itself. Through some sharp negotiation and excellent timing, we just negotiated a parcel at jaw-dropping pricing that simply too low to publish online, but our private clients can still reap all the rewards and stock the cellar big time.

Savory berries, plums, iron, minerals, tobacco, ink and blood oranges. Very bright, juicy and structured, with sensational balance, aged savoriness and brightness that are typical of Tondonia reds. Beautiful now.

96 points, Zekun Shuai, James Suckling (Aug 2024)

The 2012 Viña Tondonia Reserva comes from a very dry year, with 25% less rain than the average (at the time), resulting in lower yields of very healthy grapes that delivered wines with nice balance between alcohol and polyphenols, making it very apt for the aging in barrel. It had a slightly longer élevage in barrel, six years. The wine is aromatic with a developed profile, spicy and tertiary (forest floor, a touch of brick dust and iodine), complex and nuanced. The palate is full and round, with polished tannins and a long, dry finish. It has a textbook Tondonia nose and profile. 250,000 bottles produced.

95 points, Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate (Feb 2024)

The 2012 Viña Tondonia is a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano, cultivated on the meander of the Ebro River in Rioja Alta. This garnet wine reveals aromas of ash and plum marmalade, with a faintly herbal core and hints of oaky cedar. Dry and lean, the fairly chalky texture lingers long, concluding with a compact, flavorful and lasting finish. The 2012 is a beautiful old-school Rioja.

95 points, Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous (Apr 2024)

All you can expect from a classical Viña Tondonia with its focused intensity and muscular yet very elegant tannins. At once assertive and silky, with juicy red and blue fruit gliding through the palate while being pleasantly pulled back by an energetic, iodine verve. Subtle, hovering, brooding notes of tobacco, mocha and wet forest floor. 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha and 10% Graciano and Mazuelo, bottled in January 2022 having matured in 225-litre American oak barrels for six years.
