Tasting notes Gaba do Xil Tinto

The tasting repport of this wine is being translated. Meanwhile, you can check the Spanish version.

On the palate this wine is fresh, silky and medium-bodied, with the appropriate acidity and intense tannins. Medium-length finish and appropriate persistence. A serious and enjoyable slightly bitter finish. Fruity and mineral sensations felt at retro-olfaction.

Cherry colour with purple reflections. Clean and bright.

Clean noise, medium-high intensity. Fragrant floral notes stand out accompanied by intense aromas of ripe black fruit, especially blackberries, ripe and juicy, giving way to spicy and mineral notes.

Red wine with a strong attack. Creamy, light and fresh mid palate with plenty of fruit and balsamic notes. Adequate acidity. Very persistent with a fruity aftertaste.

Cherry colour. Bright and with fine tear.

Aromatically, it is a very interesting wine, with many flavours of fruit (mainly red) and lots of flowers. Good mineral background.

Flavor comes fresh and structure.

Cerise, middle layer.

Aromas of flowers (roses, violets).

Others wines Telmo Rodríguez

It is safe to say that Telmo Rodríguez has the reputation of being one of the pioneers and best "driving winemakers", that is, winemakers that travel to different areas to produce wines from the same harvest, using only native varieties from their original regions, apart from paying special attention to the recovery of abandoned vineyards. Currently, Telmo Rodríguez, who enjoys being a winemaker more than an oenologist, is known in the wine industry for being one of the promoters of Spanish winemaking.
