Wine Clima Godello 2023 0,75L

Reasons for study:

• The Duero Valley can also produce fantastic white wines, as demonstrated by our own Blanco de Guarda Abadía Retuerta LeDomaine, which is perfect for cellaring. Other varieties are also proving to be highly effective when making a different white wine, as is the case of the Godello grape, known for being used in white wines in the north-west of Spain.

Initial conclusions:

• This wine has a surprising typicity, specific to our terroir. It has a different aromatic profile, unusual in the region,as it is fresher, with more mineral notes. It is also more intense, with a certain straightforwardness.

Key aspects:

• Great potential for ageing.
• A Godello wine, from the Duero region.

A white wine of great subtlety and harmony, with notable aromas of ripe apricot, citric notes and a delicate floral undertone. On the palate, its silky texture and freshness blend with an elegant minerality. A wine that embodies, in all its purity and splendour, the real essence of our terroir.

A long, complex grape harvest. The 2023 vintage was marked byhigh temperatures and drought. The hot weather in April led toearly budding, before the drastic fall in temperatures in Maycurbed the growth of the vines. There was still cloud cover andrainfall until mid-June, so the team had to carefully monitor anypossible outbreaks of disease in the plants. In the summer, theextreme heat came at the end of the cycle, but watering helpedkeep the situation under control. Then, practically at the start ofthe harvest, the rain came back again.
