History: Inherent in their practice as viticulturists is the belief that great wines are not created, but received. Bottling a wine that recognizes youth as a virtue has deepened his appreciation for his dynamic vineyard. With Cortejo they invite us to share that joyful process and witness the evolution of their mountain farm. 

Tasting Notes:
