With the 2012 L.Z. they try to reproduce the Rioja wines from the 1920s, where the grapes were fermented and aged in concrete, without any make-up, showing very clean and fruity, with notes of red licorice and flowers and a fresh, polished palate creating a wine of pleasure, pure and honest. A straightforward, humble wine, true to its origins that is a real pleasure to drink. Drink 2014-2018.
Telmo Rodriguez and his partner Pablo Eguzkiza produced some exceptional wines in 2010, which is no surprise, as they have been going from strength to strength in the last few years. The surprise is a new single vineyard bottling from Rioja; I think they have finally fulfilled their dream (I remember hearing this from Telmo 15 years ago) to have the privilege to own some exceptional vineyards and produce small quantities of wines from them. They now have As Caborcas in Valdeorras, Las Beatas in Rioja, and others will come from Ribera del Duero, from Cebreros. Some exciting wines are in the pipeline.
