Telmo Rodríguez
Gaba do Xil Valdeorras Godello
Valdeorras, Galicia, Spain
Telmo Rodriguez, Spain’s pioneer winemaker, studied viticulture & oenology at the Univ of Bordeaux & winemaker at his family winery in Rioja. Had a chance to taste '14/'15 side by side. Made from 100% Godello grown in shallow, stony granite soils on terraces facing south, west & northwest. Straw yellow with green edges and fruity floral nose with forest aromas. The palate shows white flesh fruits, light body, generous acidity in a nice mouthfeel. The finish is medium in length and pleasant.

Sep 21st, 2017Made from 100% Godello grown in shallow, stony granite soils on terraces facing south, west and northwest. These grainy soils have low water retention, forcing the vines to struggle and limiting yields. Straw yellow with green edges and a fruity, floral nose with forest aromas. The palate reveals white flesh fruits on this light body wine, generous acidity wrapped in a nice mouthfeel. The finish is medium in length and pleasant.
