Telmo Rodriguez As Caborcas single Vineyard 2017 – Valdeorras

Telmo Rodriguez is considered as one of the great Spanish winemakers, one filled with ambition to find ancient, distinguished vineyards to resuscitate. Ladeiras do Xil is the Galician vineyards of Telmo Rodriguez, located in the Valdeorras area in between Ribeira Sacra to the west and Bierzo to the east. The specific parcels of the vineyards have been developed in very different ways for unique expressions. The ‘As Caborcas’ Parcel is the oldest one and hasn’t been replanted at all. It’s an old field blend that has remained the same forever. It shows an incredible complexity of spices and deep fruits. It’s aromatic, delicious with a lingering freshness embellished by tarter notes on the palate.
