One of the stars in the field of white Godello wines and the red Mencia from the Valdeorras is the winery Val De Sil which focuses strongly on the Galician grape Godello and Mencia. The bodega has its vineyards in the valley Sil with its unique slate grounds which make the wines of this house unique.

The Pezas da Portela is a 100% Godello originating from 11 small unique Pezas (plots) in the village of Portela at 500 meters altitude with an average age of 50 years old vines which are owned by the family. Each parcel is vinified separately in oak barrels of different sizes, then blended and then aged for 6 months in barrique and then again in stainless steel and concrete. In the cool climate with enormous sea influence everything grows very quietly and this makes wines with a fantastic elegance. What a beautiful white wine this is. Notes of smoke, toast, vanilla, apple and ripe yellow fruit in the background and the unique minerality. The taste is very intense, broad, creamy, complex and refined with refreshing acidity enhanced by a muscular minerality derived from the unique slate terroir. This is a great unique wine that will only improve with age. The best summary for this wine is: Delicate - Complex with great finesse.
