Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A superb example of the Godello varietal, from the Alvarez family who have been harvesting this grape and making wonderful wine since the XVth century. And they know just how to do it! Subdued floral aromatics, followed by honeydew melon and white peach, on a medium-bodied palate.
Try this with garlicy Tiger Shrimp and you, too will know what they mean when they say"beber este vino es como hablar con Dios'.
Drinking this wine is like talking with God.
This full-bodied DO appellation white wine is unoaked and floral with some mixed spices and white peach on the finish. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
