Estrada 2020 comes from a 0.64-hectare northeast-facing plot planted in the 1940s. Located at 610 meters above sea level, it is one of the highest vineyards in the village of Lanciego. This wine, composed mainly of Tempranillo with some Graciano and Garnacha, is floral and ripe, with pronounced tannins that make it difficult to drink early.

Of Basque origin, but considering himself very close to French culture, Telmo Rodriguez studied winemaking at the Bordeaux Institute of Oenology, before completing internships with Cos d’Estournel, Jean Louis Chave and Trevallon. He also worked on the vinification of the wines at the family estate of Remelluri, in Rioja. Then, in 1990, with an investment of just a few thousand euros, he launched his own winery. He purchased grapes to produce his first wines. His first estate plots would not arrive until 1997, in Rioja.
