Tomorrow's Wine
$29.99
Country: Spain
Region: Bierzo
Type: White Wine
Grape: Godello
The Godello is from three organically-farmed sites in the village of Valtuille de Abajo, though 90% of the fruit in this vintage actually comes from one north-facing site. The ultimate focus here is on preserving acidity, as Godello can get a little sloppy if overripened. Fruit for this wine is picked on the knife edge of ripeness, and as such the resulting wine only reaches about 11.8% alcohol. The wine ferments and ages in a combination of foudres and old 300-liter barrels.
Citrus aromas lead into a rich body with notes of tropical fruits, enlivened by brisk acidity. Fresh, long finish.
