Tasting Notes Villafranca Godello 2024
Golden color, clean and vivid. These Village wine shows balance between its fruity character and the complexity and structure of barrel fermenting. Hints of green apples, white flowers, and citrus notes over a subtle and well integrated oak. A round and lasting wine, with Godello’s typical freshness and the minerality influenced by our soils. Frank evolution once opened adding notes of dried flowers and salinity.
It is a quite gastronomic wine that captures the elegance and potential of this grape in Bierzo. Very enjoyable, showing good balance and aging capacity.
