White Wine

Variety: 100% Godello

Production
Harvested in mid-September selecting the grapes in 15 kilo crates. Once the grapes are destalked, they undergo cold maceration below 8ºC to draw out the fruit's maximum expression. Pressed at low pressure, decanted to remove the thick lees and the must is fermented with selected yeast at a controlled temperature for 14 days in stainless steel tanks.

After fermentation , the fine lees are kept to increase oiliness, volume and aromatic potency by means of battonage, stirring the fine lees together smoothly for six months, after which the wine is clarified naturally.

Tasting
A brilliant clean color, with a glycerine rim in the glass. Elegant complexity in the nose with white wild flower tones. Very well balanced in the mouth between fresh green fruit and the maturity of the fine lees.

Pleasant, smooth, complex and delicate, with a predominantly fruity and mineral sensation. Its balance and complexity make it a long-lasting wine.
