Winemaker Description
The Pazo de La Cuesta Godello Ribeira Sacra Blanco 2023 is a Galician white of excellent expression, crafted from hand-harvested Godello grapes in the steep, terraced vineyards of Ribeira Sacra. After destemming, the grapes undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration for 6 hours, followed by slow fermentation in stainless steel below 20°C for 60–70 days. The wine then ages for 4 months on fine lees with weekly rackings, building texture and complexity while preserving freshness.
Tasting Notes
Bright pale yellow with a steely rim. The nose is subtle and delicate — white flowers, stone fruit, citrus, and a touch of anise. On the palate, rich and fresh with excellent balance, vibrant acidity, and a long, pleasantly bitter finish that is the hallmark of great Godello.
Pairing Suggestions
Seafood: Grilled scallops, steamed clams, octopus a la gallega, or grilled branzino.
Light dishes: Goat cheese, white asparagus, or a simple roast chicken with herbs.
Aperitif: Serve well chilled — a natural match for Galician tapas.
