Cornamus 2024 is a white Ribeira Sacra DO wine from Galicia, Spain, made from 100% Godello. It’s associated online with “Fernando Algueira,” but the producer is Bodega (Adega) Algueira, the family winery founded by Fernando González Riveiro and his wife Ana, based in the Amandi area around Francos-Doade, Sober (Lugo). The estate works steep, river-influenced vineyards—a defining feature of Ribeira Sacra—where site variation is often pronounced across short distances.

For the 2024 Cornamus specifically, the most detailed information available comes from a retail technical sheet, which places the vineyards on “steep slopes” with “schist and granite soils,” under a “Mediterranean climate,” and notes “sustainable methods” in the farming. The same source lists the wine at 14.5% alcohol, positioning it as a fuller-bodied expression of Godello than many Atlantic-leaning Galician whites.

In style, the published tasting note points to a bright, mineral-driven white rather than an overtly oaked or exotic one. Cavissima describes a “pale golden color” and an aromatic profile that is “floral and fruity,” with “pear and citrus.” On the palate, the note emphasizes freshness—“fresh, lively”—alongside “mineral nuances,” finishing “long” and “harmonious” (Cavissima). The recommended service temperature is 10–12°C, and the suggested drinking window extends from 2024 to 2035 (Cavissima), implying confidence in the wine’s ability to develop beyond its early fruit.

There are no verified professional critic scores or vintage-specific reviews for the 2024 Cornamus in the material provided, so there are no “excellent reviews” to report for this vintage at this time. As a result, the best-supported summary is that Cornamus 2024 aims for a structured, high-alcohol Godello profile built on floral-citrus aromatics, marked freshness, and a clearly stated mineral finish.
