Finca La Cuesta is so young that it seems like a raw wine. It is a pure Mencia, aged in French oak barrels for a year. It seems to be more complete than the 2013, powerful, with better balance and emerging complexity. The palate is still marked by the aging, but you can sense the intensity and concentration of the vintage, coupled with a beautiful acidity that brings good balance to this powerful style. A very promising vintage for Finca La Cuesta. " (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)
