FUN FACT

Winemaker Telmo Rodriguez spotted 2006 as a particularly age-worthy vintage. This wine was cellared at the winery till 2021 when Telmo decided it was at its peak drinking age and released it to the market.

BEST ENJOYED

as a safe splurge.  It's a "Goldilocks" wine: not too big, not too light, a little earthy, a little fruity.  Its beautiful balance and elegance is magnified by the additional age. This wine is soft, delicate, and very special.
