90 Pts Jay Miller - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate |
"The 2001 Oscar Tobia Reserva, from a great Rioja vintage, was in barrel for 18 months and offers additional complexity. There is plenty of toasty oak, earth, charcoal, and black cherry in the nose which is followed by a wine with all the material for several years of additional development. Drink it over the next 8-10 years." 90 Points - Jay Miller - Wine Advocate (02/07) |
Description:
WINERY:
"Oscar Tobia, the owner and wine maker of Bodegas Tobia, founded the bodega in 1994 after completing an agricultural engineering degree and attaining his masters in viticulture and oenology. Oscar has quickly distinguished himself as an impressive young force in the competitive Rioja market. Oscar belongs to the prestigious DeVinos tasting group in Rioja, made up of some of the top winemakers including Maria Jose Lopez de Heredia of Bodegas Lopez de Heredia, Manuel and Jorge Muga of Bodegas Muga, and Jesus Madrazo of Bodegas Contino. This affords Oscar the opportunity to discuss all levels of winemaking with some of the renown winemakers in Rioja whose wines represent the complete range of styles in Rioja. " -Importer
VINEYARDS:
La Rioja is nestled in the valley of the Ebro, sheltered from the cold northerly winds by the Sierra de la Cantabrian Mountains and the fierce southerly winds that sweep over the Iberian plateau by the Sierra de la Demanda Mountains; whereby, providing us a unique location to cultivate our vines.
La Rioja is comprised of three different provinces, each with their specific climatic conditions: the Atlantic in La Rioja Alta, the Mediterranean in La Rioja Baja, and both the Atlantic and the Mediterranean in La Rioja Alavesa. To the East, down towards the Ebro River, the climate is dry and temperate is a result of the Mediterranean influence.
As a result of the different soil types: ferrous, calcareous and alluvial, La Rioja offers a wide range of opportunities to elaborate wines of excellent quality.
Since we first began making our wines in 1995, we have worked to select different plots of land throughout La Rioja which allowed us not only to produce wines of high quality, but that express the complexity and essence of the land. Our aim is to elaborate wines that show the diversity and complexity of La Rioja, each expressing their specific terroir. Currently, we harvest 80 hectares in over 15 different municipalities of DOCa Rioja. The lands were selected based on the unique properties of the grapes, their yields, the topography, the microclimate and the soil.
Our technicians work closely with our farmers to obtain a high quality product that we may nurture and develop in our winery so as to reach its full potential. From the beginning of maturation up until the harvest, we work tirelessly to ensure the grapes reach their optimum maturation though continual tasting and ongoing analysis. -Importer
