Explore the visionary world of Telmo Rodríguez, one of Spain’s most respected and forward-thinking winemakers. This collection features some of the finest wines that reflect Spain’s native varietals, ancient vineyards, and a philosophy deeply rooted in authenticity and terroir.

Who Is Telmo Rodríguez?

Telmo Rodríguez is often described as a modern-day pioneer in Spanish winemaking. Trained in Bordeaux and Burgundy, he returned to Spain with a mission to revive forgotten vineyards and restore traditional Spanish wine regions to global prominence. Through his wine company, Compañía de Vinos Telmo Rodríguez, he produces expressive, elegant wines across various appellations reviving lost grapes, historical sites, and forgotten winemaking techniques along the way.

Regions Represented in This Collection

One of the defining features of Telmo Rodríguez’s work is his dedication to site-specific winemaking. The collection brings together wines from:

• Ribera del Duero: Powerful, age-worthy reds made with old-vine Tempranillo (locally called Tinto Fino).
• Toro: Rich, structured wines from Tinta de Toro, a local strain of Tempranillo.
• Valdeorras: Crisp, mineral-driven whites made from Godello, grown on slate soils.
• Rioja: Elegant, traditional reds from organically farmed vineyards in historic zones like Lanciego and Labastida.

Each bottle is a reflection of place crafted with minimal intervention, native yeasts, and sustainable farming practices.

A Commitment to Authenticity & Sustainability

Telmo Rodríguez’s approach is grounded in organic viticulture, low-intervention winemaking, and reviving lost traditions. His team focuses on:

• Using only native Spanish grape varieties
• Revitalising abandoned hillside vineyards
• Avoiding synthetic chemicals in the vineyard
• Employing manual harvests and old-vine selection

This results in wines that are not only expressive and delicious, but also respectful of the land and culture from which they come.
