Maria José has a dilemma; her wonderful library of stock now has such extensive global demand that, unless she is able to control her naturally benevolent temperament, it will soon be depleted. Herewith a case in point; a special parcel for this offer of the sublime 1980 Gran Reserva, just at the stage of its life where the secondary and tertiary elements become intimate, where the perspective of middle age refuses to negate youthful exuberance yet adds harmonious balance and calm.

Bodegas R. López de Heredia is one of the wine world’s great treasures. Founded in 1877 by Don Rafael López de Heredia y Landeta, the bodega was built close to the railway station at Haro, in Rioja, its location geographically symbolic for proximity of access to the ideas of Bordeaux and practically useful for transportation of both grapes and wines. The quality of the wines is such that they have maintained a plateau of perfection for years.
