Telmo Rodriguez, La Estrada 2016

La Estrada Alta comes from a tiny vineyard established in the 1940s, high in Lanciego. This wine is pure and refined, with ripe red fruit, subtle spices, and a mineral freshness that reflects the chalky soil. On the palate, it's powerful yet elegant, with beautiful depth and perfect balance.

Excellent with lamb, grilled vegetables, refined stews or hard cheeses.

Winemaker

Telmo Rodríguez is considered one of Spain's most innovative winemakers. Telmo often works with local grape varieties planted as bush vines. This traditional method provides sufficient shade for the leaves, preventing the sun from "cooking" the grapes, resulting in a fresher and less "jampy" wine. Telmo is also renowned for revitalizing old vineyards where various varieties are planted together. These "field blends" are among the gems of his range.
