About Telmo Rodriguez
Telmo Rodriguez is a winemaker dedicated to terroir, and determined to display the quality and character of Rioja's complex, dynamic soils. The wines are matured in very cold cellars where they go through their fermentations at a snail's pace; allowing the full breadth of terroir expression to come into their own before bottling. A penchant for mineral on the level of the top level Priorat and Burgundy wines, Telmo rodriguez has hit the nail on the head with this modern, stylish Rioja; that Jancis Robinson has described as "incredibly fine... one of the most beautiful wines I have tasted in a long time." Surely they are bound to breath new life into a time-honoured region.

Wine Advocate (95)The 2015 O Diviso felt closed, more reticent, and seems more powerful, despite the fact they did a nonextractive vinification; they did nothing and let the wine ferment at its own pace. This matured in one 600-liter oak barrel, and this is the only red that has a slight note from the oak. There is also a relevant amount of Garnacha Tintorera, so the combination of a warm year, the small barrel and the varietal mix resulted in a more austere and backward wine that is going to require more time in bottle. The fruit is darker and the wine is more powerful than the 2014. It might evolve with time in bottle, because it certainly has the stuffing to do so, but today As Caborcas was singing, and I have to give it the edge. 895 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2016. |
