Love the 82 but don’t know the 83. After seeing your numerous positive notes on this I really need to find some. Any suggestions on where to source it?

The last 2 cases that I purchased have been owc’s bought at auction & were in perfect condition. I have found single btls at various retailers, Benchmark, HDH, K&L where conditions can vary. The 82 is legendary & priced accordingly but the 83 if found can be had at 1/4th the price. Cheers!

Delicious cab! Lots of black berry and dark bramble fruit up front with herb notes mid palate and firm well integrated tannins on a medium length finish. Great with steak, or even on it's own! — 9 years ago

Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2002

Can't believe I've held on to this treasure for so long! Cedar and sandalwood on the nose. Silky with a bright and savory--almost vegetal--finish. Perfect with filet and steak-house style garlicky creamed spinach. These grapes were picked when I was still in high school! — 9 years ago
