Brand details
Martín Códax was a famous Galician troubadour from the 13th century, who inspired the name of our most iconic wine. His cantigas, poems which were written and sung in Galician-Portuguese, recalled love and passion for the sea, and are the oldest ones to this day, to have both musical notes and lyrics in that language. His mark is present in the bottle design, having details such as the musical score of one of this cantigas on the cork, or the lyrics transciption on the label.
