Winery
Telmo Rodriguez is one of Spain’s pioneer winemakers, advocating native grape varietals tied to the climates and conditions of their sites, and making world-class wines from undiscovered as well as known regions.
Telmo was among the first to make significant wines in Toro, Rueda, Valdeorras, Malaga, Alicante and Cigales. In these areas he uses native varietals, often grapes rediscovered such as Godello, Verdejo, Moscatel and Monastrell which do not have wide recognition. With other classically recognized varietals such Tempranillo, Garnacha and Carignan, he works with vines that are indigenous and reflect the character of their particular site. As a result, Telmo has been one of the leaders of the quality revolution with these varietals in up and coming areas such as Toro, as well as in the traditional areas of Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
This fantastic terroir-driven red wine from Galicia (Spain) is made from the rare Mencia grape varietal and displays rich aromas on the nose of red berries, granite, and white pepper. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with red fruit flavors such as cherries and strawberries along with subtle nuances of herbs and earthiness. Gaba do Xil Mencia by Telmo Rodriguez is the perfect pairing partner for dishes made from game or beef as well as a wide variety of different cheeses. Available for deliveries within Metro Manila.
