Atlantis Godello 2015
Valdeorras, Galicia, SpainThis is a part of the Atlantis series managed by oenologist Raúl Acha, producing Atlantic wines from different DOs in Spain. Here, godello has its day, with gobelet-trained vineyards upwards of 25 years old coming together with younger trellised vines from sloping granite and slate, 400-600m high. The generous palate surges with creamy, oily lees-lined flow, along with pear, yellow apple, melon and a lift of greengage and bright lemon. Moderate acidity, massive mouth-filling, this is a fuller, oak-free white capable of handling fresh halibut or sablefish with ease.Tasted: 17 August 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $21.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
