Bodegas Godeval was founded in 1986 in the Galician appellation of Valdeorras in northwest Spain and they concentrate solely on the Godello grape variety and with good reason - they make lovely wines with it!
This wine is their benchmark wine. With their south facing vineyards benefiting from an Atlantic influence and a more continental climate which helps produce a style of wine that is fresh and aromatic but complex and rich.
It is delicate but with aromatic fruit aromas (green apples, a touch of peach) fresh acidity with a balance of weight & texture throughout. The finish is fresh (saline) and clean - and quite long.
A really good example of Godello. For comparison purposes, this Godello is a little drier than most of the other famous Galician white wines - Albarino!
While Godello was unknown to most wine drinkers a few years back, it is now up there as one of the best white wines in Iberia! Check it out yourself!

Godello variety typical aromas are fruit (peach and apple), floral and herbaceous, with some anise flavored and peppermint nuances. The godello variety concentrates its characteristics molded by the Atlantic climate with continental influence and by the slate soil in which the vines are settled. The palate is especially pleasant, with a balance between the sweet sensations that bring body and volume, and the acid flavors that give freshness, in addition to some mineral notes provided by the slate soils from which it comes.
The Godello grape, in addition to its extraordinary aromatic potential, has a marked lactic character that produces wines with a very wide mouth, exquisite and with enormous personality.
