Wife got a verbal job offer this afternoon and she decided on the 08 RLdH Tondonia. What would you have picked?

Remelluri was also in the mix but it was our last ‘12 so she decided to save it. I can’t believe she didn’t go for the 904. I would have picked the Prado but I prefer it closer to 20 y/o. Anyway I can’t believe how fresh and lively the Tondonia is. This is the oldest tondonia I’ve had (current date - vintage date) and It’s like still basically totally primary. Honestly if you gave it to me blind I’d say it’s whatever the current release - or younger ‘12?) there is this insane depth of darker fruit that comes out with food which is literally like a thousand subtleties luling you to sleep and then smacking you in the face. When I look at Tondonia in the cellar I often shy away thinking it’s going to be too light for what I’m looking for but then I try it and it always blows me away. Wow do I love Rioja.
