Telmo Rodriguez Gago Tinto 2016 75cl

Description

Producer :	In 1967, Jaime Rodríguez bought the successful Finca Remelluri in Rioja. When the son Telmo began studying oenology, the path of the winery seemed to be mapped out. But it is usually known that things turn out differently: after various stops, the busy Telmo set out to turn the Spanish wine world upside down. In 1994 he founded his "Compania de Vinos", leased and bought vineyards in the classic wine regions of Spain wherever possible. His declared goal was to place the typical regional vines and characteristics of the individual wines in the foreground and to provide them with his personal signature. He was certainly one of the first winemakers in Spain to deal intensively with the subject of “terroir”. Today, a team of twelve oenologists works in the different regions of Spain under the leadership of the “master”, who is constantly on the go to check the quality and typicality of his wines.
