Louro Godello is one of the most recognized white wines from Galicia, created by Rafael Palacios under the Valdeorras designation of origin. This 100% Godello wine is cultivated in approximately 25-year-old vineyards planted on granite and clay soils in the municipality of O Bolo. The unique combination of microclimate and altitude in the region gives the wine a distinctive freshness and balance. The name "Louro," meaning "blond" or "golden" in Galician, perfectly reflects its color and luminosity. Its meticulous production involves fermenting in foudres and maturing for 4-5 months on fine lees, which adds volume, creaminess, and an intriguing complexity to its flavor profile. In tasting, it presents a bright straw color with greenish reflections and a nose rich in fennel, white flowers, and wild herbs, alongside citrus notes and a slight mineral touch. On the palate, it offers a broad and fresh entry, with a silky texture and fruity progression, finishing with a long and saline aftertaste that reflects the minerality of the terroir. This signature Godello is refined and expressive, encapsulating the essence of its birthplace with impressive elegance and depth.
