Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

It is one of the few white wines from El Bierzo aged on lees. Godelia Godello rests five months on lees in tanks. What makes this wine special is the evolution of the white grape and the time in the bottle. Godelia Godello has a gift that is very hard to obtain: it is ideal for sitting around and chatting, since it is fresh and has a lot of character, but it is also excellent for pairing, thanks to its nuances.

    Some herbal and grassy notes to the yellow peaches and pears here. The palate has a juicy and fresh, tart, minerally finish.

The bodega lies in the district of Pieros. With its typical local architecture, the old style traditional farmhouse is in perfect harmony with its beautiful surroundings in a landscape which bears witness to the passage of countless pilgrims making their way to Santiago de Compostela.

The installations are functional and follow traditional techniques, which have been improved to ensure the utmost care for the production processes.

Godello is native to northwest Spain and has experienced a major revival in the last 20 years. Godello wines are typically sleek and lightly creamy in texture. Barrel fermentation and lees stirring are typical in Valdeorras, Spain where the grape comes from. These winemaking techniques make the most of Godello's inherent structure and help bring out its lovely floral character. Somm Secret—DNA profiling says that Spain’s Godello is actually identical to the Portugese grape variety Gouveio, which grows throughout the Douro and Dão (where it used to mistakenly be called Verdelho).

One of the few northwestern Spanish regions with a focus on a red variety, Bierzo, part of Castilla y León, is home to the flowery and fruity Mencia grape. Mencia produces balanced and bright red wines full of strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, baking spice, pepper and black licorice. The well-drained soils of Bierzo are slate and granite.
