Rafael Palacios "LOURO" Godello

Rafael Palacios "LOURO" Godello

Vintage: 2020
Description: If one were asked to rank the indispensable white wines from the old world, there would be very few on the list originating below 45Âş in latitude.yet only after a decade in Valdeorras, it is becoming apparent that Rafa can make wines from warmer climes that have the potential to rival Hermitage Blanc, Corton-Charlemagne, the Mosel or the Wachau. As quaffable and enjoyable as Godello can be from Valdeorras, it rarely reaches the level of richness, balance and complexity as it does in the hands of Rafael Palacios. Rafa works exclusively with Godello planted on granitic soils at much higher elevations â€" so high that late Spring snow and frost are ever present dangers to his already low yields.
