Compañía de Vinos de Telmo Rodríguez produces wines in various Spanish appellations using local varieties from the regions in question. And in DO Toro that obviously means Tinta de Toro, the grape they use to create wonderful wines like Pago La Jara, Dehesa Gago, and Gago, a fine wine brimming with character and expressing all the strength of this variety.
Gago is made using grapes from Tinta de Toro goblet-pruned vines growing in gravel and sandstone based soils using traditional vine-growing methods. The wine ages for 14 months in wooden foudres bought in the year 2000 which respect the wine without adding aromas and flavours.
Gago is a pure and fresh wine, with a well-defined personality. A wine characterized by a strong presence of fruit but also by its delicacy. It shows none of the rusticity sometimes linked to Toro wines, but it will delight all wine-lovers of this region's wines with its focus on elegance above concentration.

Marci Telmo Rodriguez !
J’ai fait connaissance des productions de Telmo Rodriguez avec l’excellent blanc GABA DO XIL garanti « sans fût de chêne »... depuis j’essaye ses différentes productions et ne suis jamais déçu. Je vais tous les tester...

Gago 2019
Da ich kein Weinspezialist bin wage ich keine genaue Aussage zu treffen.
Was ich aber sagen kann, dass dieser Wein genau mein Geschmack ist. Dunkel, Schwer aber Fruchtig und angenehm.

So jung und doch schon trinkreif !
Ich kann den jungen Wein nur bestens empfehlen, inhaltsvoll, mit langem
Abgang, noch etwas Säure ! Den noch drei Jahre lagern, dann wird der wunderbar.

Vino que representa el típico carácter de los DO Toro., mineral, fruta madura.
Capa alta, potente, taninos maduros, pero no fáciles de olvidar. Airearse bien, con temperatura de 18-20 gC. Acidez adecuada, fresco
