Vina Tondonia Magnum 2011 peated The 2011 Chateau Cos d'Estournel"The 2011 Via Tondonia Reserva is darker and shows riper fruit, a rounder palate and some dusty tannins. A year of ripeness, concentration and tannin, the wine is powerful with the finesse of Tondonia. Tasting this next to the textbook 2010 Tondonia revealed how this has more muscle and a wider back and the 2010 epitomizes the finesse and elegance." Luis Gutirrez, Wine Advocate, 2022
