2021 Valdesil Montenovo Godello

A delicious young, fresh white wine, this Montenovo from the Spanish quality winery Valdesil . Made from 100% delicious Godello grapes from the Valdeorras wine region. The Galician name 'Montenovo' refers to the freshness of the highest mountains of Galicia that surround the vineyard in the Sil valley, as well as youthful vigor. The vineyard has a bottom of slate, which also gives beautiful minerals to this wine.

The wine has a more than excellent price-quality ratio, especially for such a great winery as Valdesil. Nice on the nose with aromas of pear, pineapple, lemon, melon and a light note of rosemary and sage herbs. Tastes clean, mineral, fresh and fruity. Truly a wine to enjoy every day. Also delicious as an aperitif, or with a nice drink with a snack. Also combines very well with fish dishes. It is not for nothing that this Montenovo is one of our best selling wine. The only drawback is that, as is the case with all ValdeSil wines, there is always a very limited stock. Quality matters here, not quantity.
