Godello White Wine from Galicia – Crisp & Dry Valdesil Pezas da Portela 2018

Valdesil Godello 2018: A Masterpiece of Spanish Winemaking

Discover the essence of timeless craftsmanship with Valdesil’s 2018 Godello from Spain’s Valdeorras region—a terroir celebrated for its mineral-rich soils and microclimates. This handcrafted white wine is born from century-old vines planted by Jose Ramon Gayoso’s descendants using massal selection from the historic Pedrouzos vineyard (planted in 1885). Every cluster is nurtured manually in small plots around Portela village, free from synthetic chemicals or industrial fertilizers, preserving a legacy of organic authenticity.

Bottling Tradition & Precision
The grapes undergo meticulous lot-by-lot fermentation in neutral oak barrels for six months before blending and aging in stainless steel tanks for a year—a process that enhances complexity while retaining vibrant fruitiness. The result is a wine that captivates with exotic citrus aromas layered over mineral-driven notes of stone fruit and saline tension—qualities that define Godello’s unique elegance.

Why This Wine Stands Out
– Sensory Depth: Balanced acidity and mineral texture make it perfect for pairing with seafood or creamy cheeses
– Craftsmanship: A blend of tradition (old vines) and innovation (precision aging)
– Sustainability: Hand-farmed with zero synthetic inputs

Perfect for: Wine enthusiasts seeking a refined yet approachable white wine that reflects Spain’s viticultural heritage. At 13.5% alcohol, it’s crisp yet full-bodied—ideal for casual sipping or gourmet dining experiences.
