Telmo Rodriguez, Gaba do Xil Mencia 2021

A fresh and fruity red wine with character that can be enjoyed slightly chilled. Refined aromas of fruit and floral notes (violets) and minerals. Unwooded, the palate is pleasantly light and marked by fruity notes, freshness, and a long finish without alcoholic fatigue. This wine, influenced by the Atlantic climate, is both original and a clear reflection of the Valdeorras region.
