VARIETY: 100% Godello
-
TERROIR: Sourced from estate vineyards in Valdeorras, characterized by slate soils and a continental climate with Atlantic influences, providing optimal conditions for cultivating Godello.
-
VINIFICATION: Hand-harvested grapes undergo fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation is avoided to preserve the wine's natural acidity and freshness. The wine is aged on lees in stainless steel for five months, enhancing its texture and complexity.
