Viña Tondonia 1973 Rioja Gran Reserva

This red wine from the northen Spanish DOC of Rioja is a blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha with small amounts of Graciano and Mazuelo, matured in oak barrels for 10 years; 1973 vintage.

The label design is indeed that of Viña Tondonia's Gran Reservas.  However, when the terminology of \"Crianza\", \"Reserva\" and \"Gran Reserva\" was agreed in the 1970s, Don Pedro López Heredia, owner of Viña Tondonia, objected and so refused to use the new terminologies on his wines' labels.

Instead, the neck label simply states \"Rioja de Crianza\" as was the former terminology of stating the wine had been matured in oak.

Vega Sicilia \"Valbuena\" 5ano 1988 Ribera Del Duero

Vega Sicilia is Spain's most renowned producer and traces its roots back to 1864.  American wine guru Robert Parker (Wine Advocate) has called Vega Sicilia \"One of the world's most iconic wines'.

Vega Sicilia is noted for its patience in winemaking and willingness to hold onto their inventory and age their wines in the barrel - sometimes for several decades - before they release their wines to the market.  Vega Sicilia produces three wines: \"Unico\" Gran Reserve, \"Unico\" Reserva Especial and \"Valbuena\".

This bottle, a 1988 vintage \"Valbuena\" 5 ano, is predominantly Tempranillo with a small amount of Merlot and aged for 5 years in oak.  Robert Parker rated Ribera Del Duero's 1988 vintage an 87/100.
