The Vineyard

It comes from the La Claudina plot, located in Valtuille de Abajo at about 590 meters of altitude.

The vineyard, bush-trained in 1995 and east-facing, covers just 0.3 hectares on sandy soils that provide delicacy, freshness, and a marked mineral personality.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place in a single 1,500-liter foudre that is never completely refilled, allowing the natural development of flor veil.

Subsequently, the wine remains for 12 to 24 months in the same foudre, refining its complexity and texture without losing freshness or varietal identity.

Tasting Notes

Bright golden yellow color.

On the nose, it is harmonious and complex, with aromas of ripe fruit, honey, quince, and delicate saline hints.

On the palate, it is juicy and expansive, with great volume, tension, and a fresh, deeply gastronomic profile.

Pairing

Ideal with red prawns, grilled seafood, noble fish, and high-intensity seafood cuisine.

A single-vineyard Godello that combines depth, freshness, and unique aging under a flor veil to offer one of the most personal and complex expressions of contemporary Bierzo.
