    The grapes for the Cortazo are grown in the hot Brenntal vineyard in Kurtatsch, which is ideal for ensuring the Cabernet Sauvignon reaches the required level of ripeness. A deep ruby red colour. A harmonious bouquet of violets and wild berries. On the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with a lovely core of fruit and subtle extract sweetness, velvety tannins and a long finish. Excellent Storage potential. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Spicy notes of black pepper and ground coffee, blackcurrants and plums. Medium-bodied and fruity, but with a harsh finish. Firm, dusty tannins and crisp acidity." James Suckling

    "The 2022 Merlot-Cabernet Riserva Cortazo reveals, in the glass, an abundance of crushed blueberries and black cherries, intertwined with autumnal spices. It is surprisingly juicy, with a refreshing acidity and fresh wild berries that delight the senses. The 2022 vintage is pleasantly tart, lively and crisp, finishing with soft tannins and a chalky, mineral richness." Vinous

    "Merlot and Cabernet discover what altitude does to their swagger, black fruits turning crisp and fresh while violets catch the alpine breeze. The palate keeps its juicy core but everything runs cooler up here. When Bordeaux trades its sailing jacket for a climbing harness." Wine Enthusiast
