Bodegas Rafael Palacios
Louro Valdeorras Godello
These Spanish whites are great, nose is packed with marsipan, the good oak notes of distinct ”bakelser” (sweets), and honey melon, papaya, and yellow citrus; medium acids and alcohol and yellow fruit that takes the marsipan and other nose flavours into a long satisfying finish.

May 28th, 2021As with ‘18 vintage, killer value. Rich, tropical fruit aromas preside with pineapple, key lime, grapefruit, and white flowers on the nose and palate. Good acid balance. A touch of bitter citrus zest and minerals on the finish.

Dec 7th, 2020Fragrant citrus fruits on the nose and on the palate, lemon and lime juice, savory and a bit of bread dough, slight bitterness on the finish. Nice m+ acidity on this one with good mouthfeel.

May 6th, 2019Ripe and rich. Tropical and leesy, but with stern, crisp acidity. Would love to sneak this into a flight/tasting of oaked Chard.
