Telmo Rodríguez, one of Spain’s most innovative winemakers, is known for his commitment to indigenous grape varieties and the country’s distinctive terroirs.
He has explored Spain from Toro to Cebreros, via Málaga and Valdeorras, to reveal wines of exceptional quality. Flagship cuvées, such as Yjar, embody the excellence of Rioja, with high-altitude vineyards and co-planting techniques.
Telmo works closely with local partners to guarantee the authenticity and unique expression of each terroir. Matallana, his Ribera del Duero cuvée, demonstrates his ability to combine tradition and innovation.
Each Telmo Rodríguez wine tells a story, reflecting both the richness of Spain’s heritage and a forward-looking vision.
