If you have not yet sampled Godello, the Bodegas Avancia Godello will be a great introduction to this fine white wine grape. Drawn from century-old vines on the steep, slate slopes above the River Sil in northwestern Spain, the wine will please your senses with luscious aromas and flavors. Scents of lemon, lime, peach and tropical fruits are enhanced by floral and herb elements. On the palate, the juicy citrus and tropical fruits are interwoven with subtle oak, herb and floral nuances. The wine has a rich texture, reflecting the low yields and ancient vines of the region. Serve it with your favorite roast chicken recipe or flavorful seafood dishes.
