Rodríguez Sanzo is the very personal project of the oenologist Javier Rodríguez, who created this wine company aiming to uniting the most important wine regions of Spain and Portugal. Under its brands, you can find wines from Rioja, Priorat, Ribera del Duero, Toro, Douro, Bierzo or Rueda, as well as Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León. This last designation endorses T-Sanzo Tempranillo, a nice and well balanced 100% Tempranillo wine which is a perfect partner for pasta recipes, some meat dishes and semi-cured cheeses.
