Telmo Rodriguez `Corriente` Rioja Alavesa, Spain, is a vibrant Red (Rouge) still dry wine crafted from Tempranillo, Graciano, and Garnacha grapes. Hand-harvested and fermented with indigenous yeasts in cement tanks, it is then aged for just under a year in a combination of oak foudres and barriques. This organic certified wine offers an expressive nose of blackberry and cherry fruit, leading to a concentrated and vibrant palate with ripe berry flavours, fine-grained tannins, and a spicy finish. An approachable and rewarding style, it pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, cured meats, or mature hard cheeses.
75.0CL , 14.0% ABV
Vinification
The grapes were hand-picked and transported in small boxes to the winery where most of the fruit was destemmed. The three varieties were co-fermented with indigenous yeasts in 65 to 85 hectolitre cement tanks. The wine was then matured for 10-12 months in a combination of foudres and barriques of different ages and origins. The wine was fined and lightly filtered before bottling.
Flavour profile
This vibrant Red Rioja, crafted from Tempranillo, Graciano, and Garnacha, offers a pure and attractive nose of expressive blackberry and cherry fruit. The palate is concentrated and lively, showcasing ripe berry flavours, fine-grained tannins, and a distinctive spicy finish.
Serving recommendation
Serve at 16-18°C. Decant for 30 minutes to allow its vibrant fruit and spicy notes to open up.
