Valdesil’s 2017 Godello, from Spain’s Galicia region, displays mineral-accented citrus fruit and floral character while deftly combining power and finesse. Lees contact adds depth and smoky complexity, making it a highly flexible wine at the table. $23.00 (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, April 2019)

May 14th, 2022Excellent quality for a $20 bottle. Tense nose with straw, honeysuckle, and some mature white flowers. Has that great godello texture on the palate. Finish is clean and precise, with the middle core of acid continuing for quite a while.
