Celebrated for its unwavering commitment to traditional viticulture, the winery ages its wines for extended periods in its own cooperage-crafted oak barrels followed by lengthy bottle maturation prior to release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2015 vintage required exceptional mastery in the cellar; challenging fermentations forced the winemaking team to manage distinct lots carefully, adjusting blending percentages with permitted vintage additions to achieve their signature balance and silky restraint. With a limited production run of just 85,000 bottles, this release highlights the estate’s historic resilience and craftsmanship. Completing the release, Viña Bosconia was bottled in March 2023, offering remarkable structure, traditional elegance, and legendary cellaring potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-html-container\" style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/r-lopez-de-heredia\" class=\"global-button\"\u003eBrowse our Rafael López de Heredia Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Whelehans Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57867926569304,"sku":"600232","price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/vina-bosconia-2015-reserva-rioja-whelehans-wines-dublin-wineshop.jpg?v=1786023466","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/r-lopez-de-heredia-vina-tondonia-vina-bosconia-reserva-2015","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
