Tasting - Pazo de Monterrey Godello








Name: Pazo De Monerrey
Variety: Godello
Region: Monterrei
Country: Spain
Year: 2014
Price: $15.00












Shop Review: Clean, minerally, slightly green in aromatics and oh so approachable and nice. For an under-$15 white, this Godello from Monterrei excels with layered flavors of apple, minerals and natural spice. The finish is long and hints at fresh herbs like thyme and tarragon. Potentially superb with garlic shrimp or calamari over fresh greens.

My Review: Never had Godello before. Aroma of pear and grape. More herb flavors, with a bit of apple. Much of the flavor seemed to be masked for some reason. Perhaps should have been cooler. Light to medium body.

Tasted without food.
