In the backwaters of Rioja, Telmo Rodriguez is seen as
revolutionary. Sprung from his family's Remelluri estate, he trained in
Bordeaux, became a consultant and now creates some of the most hedonistic wines
in Rioja's Alavesa, relentlessly seeking out and restoring forgotten vineyards
to glory. LZ is his 'junior' Rioja, pure Tempranillo, uncluttered by oak.
Aromas of warm earth, spices and herbs lead to a juicy, fruit-packed palate,
with flavours of ripe red cherries and cinnamon.
