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.

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (98)The talented Telmo Rodriguez is launching this wine onto the Place with its first vintage for the entirety of its production. The grapes are from a 3.8ha limestone-dominant plot within the family’s Remelluri estate, found in the foothills of the Sierra de Tolono mountains. A sweet and smoky attack, with a ton of flavours and fragrant aromatics that grab hold and hang on, from dense liquorice root to crushed stones to blueberry, redcurrant, rose petals and tobacco, nothing too much or too overwhelming, but you also feel the herb-strewn call of the vineyard and you want to be there, among the vines where this is made. Get hold of it now, enjoy the brilliance of Telmo Rodriguez and the sense of place that he can bring to a wine. A field blend, as with the brilliant Remelluri Blanco, with just over 7,000 bottles in this inaugural vintage. An outstanding first outing that you should be following - believe me, this is a cult wine in the making. |
