Description
An exciting wine produced by Attis Bodegas y Viñedos from their property in El Bierzo (located in the province of León).
The Godello for Sangarida comes from 20-year-old vineyards situated in Campo, Molinaseca, and San Lorenzo del Bierzo. The vineyards sit at 600 M above sea level on slopes of the Montes Aquilianos. Here, the vines are trained on trellises and are planted to silty loam soils.
Once the grapes have been hand-harvested, they are de-stemmed, pressed, and fermented in stainless steel with temperature control. The wine is then matured over the course of three months in stainless steel on its fine lees.

Taste
A fresh and lively Godello from El Bierzo characterized by tart grapefruit, lemon zest, Asian pear, and quince. There are distinct savory notes of saltine crackers due to the extended lees aging during production. The wine has a beautiful crushed rock and oyster shell minerality. The wine is dry, medium-bodied, and finishes very fresh.
