Aromatic profile of graphite, black pepper, berries, spices, leather, and underbrush, displaying sophistication and balance. Juicy and highly drinkable. Remarkable quality for its $14 price (heh). My last bottle enjoyed with appreciative company. One person even identified the winery.
Unlike many other wines by Fedellos do Couto, Cortezada is produced only from Mencía grape. Lovely result from young vines. Black pepper, blueberry, wild strawberry and red flowers. Juicy, delicious and well balanced - typical style of the wonderful trio from Galicia. I can drink it anytime in any quantities. Great value.
