In the glass, it is a brilliant green gold with silvery reflections - typical of a young, precisely vinified Godello from cooler vineyards.<\/p>\n
The flavour reveals itself with restrained elegance. Fresh pear, white flowers and a hint of lemongrass form the aromatic backbone. With a little contact with the air, subtle notes of wet stone and apple skin develop - a hint of the mineral structure that follows on the palate.<\/p>\n
Impressive is the Balance between freshness and texture<\/strong>. Unlike many of its buttery peers, this Godello has a taut, focused acidity structure that blends seamlessly into a silky, creamy texture. The moderate alcohol content of 12.5% emphasises its drinkability. A subtle saltiness unfolds on the mid-palate, which, together with notes of green apple, white peach and fennel, creates a remarkable arc of tension. The finish is precise, mineral and of medium length.<\/p>\n This single-varietal Godello from the up-and-coming DO Bierzo represents the renaissance of an almost forgotten grape variety. Maturation for three months on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks preserves the varietal freshness and authentic terroir expression of the Atlantic-continental climate of north-west Spain.<\/p>\n The lively acid structure and mineral component make this wine the ideal accompaniment to Grilled sea bass<\/strong>, Pulpo a la Gallega<\/strong> or Goat cheese<\/strong>. Also to Risotto with seafood<\/strong> or Asparagus with hollandaise<\/strong> it unfolds its full potential.<\/p>\n This Godello impressively demonstrates why the grape variety has become Spain's rising white star in recent years. It combines the structural finesse of an Albari\u00f1o with the textural depth of a Pinot Blanc, while remaining true to its own unmistakable character. An excellent price\/quality ratio for a wine that is both an immediate pleasure to drink and intellectually interesting.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"General information<\/h3>\n
