It's his only white that isn't Albariño, and it comes from inland Galicia, not the coast. The fruit is from a single plot at about 500 metres in Valdeorras, on slate mixed with granite and clay. There the Atlantic climate meets a continental one: warm enough to ripen Godello fully, cool enough at that altitude to keep its acidity. Production is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Perfumed and peachy, with jasmine, aniseed, bay leaf and a faint balsamic note, plus a thread of lemon. The palate is round and fleshy, with medium acidity and real presence. The finish is long, with a gentle bitter twist that keeps it from feeling heavy. Think of it as an Atlantic answer to a fine white Burgundy rather than an aromatic white. \u003cem\u003e(Previous vintages: 92 points from Wine Advocate for the 2024, 92+ for the 2023 and 92 for the 2022.)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Craft:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-harvested from organically farmed vines. The wine ferments spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel, then ages for eight months on its fine lees in used French oak. The oak adds a creamy texture and some complexity without tasting of wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Pairing:\u003c\/b\u003e Serve at 10–12°C. Good with roast chicken, pork loin with fennel, mushroom risotto, or grilled prawns in a citrus-herb marinade with toasted hazelnuts. It's drinking now and will gain from a few years in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bodegas Albamar","offers":[{"title":"Case of 6","offer_id":40305964056764,"sku":null,"price":390.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2174\/9109\/products\/BottleShotsforInventory-4_030f41b2-6d1a-4b13-ba4f-7f837b488508.jpg?v=1739812841","url":"https:\/\/cosechaimports.com\/products\/albamar-ceibo-2025","provider":"Cosecha Imports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
