Fruits scents of peach and apple then a fine layer of exotic spices, crushed flowers and perhaps some time in older barrel. A dry wine on the palate with plenty of weight and mouthfeel from acidity and fine tannins, the phenolics add complexity as well. A decent balance of fruit and sense of site deliver a wine of texture and length, moderate+ complexity and lots of style.

Its determined revival from the 1970s has seen it emerge as a star capable of producing structured, mineral-driven wines with real texture and aging potential. In Ribeira Sacra’s dramatic landscape of “heroic viticulture,” where grapes must be hand-picked from steep, terraced slopes high above the Sil River, Pasal de Esile (named for the river’s course that links the steep banks) is grown on distinctive red clay soils in the Quiroga sub-zone. Pure Godello is fermented and aged on its fine lees to build volume and complexity while preserving the variety’s natural freshness and acidity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood Pairing: A versatile, food-friendly white that pairs beautifully with seafood, sushi, pasta and lighter Mediterranean dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MuchoGusto","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53081274351933,"sku":"PasEsileGod24","price":197.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/PasaldeEsileGodelloRibeiraSacraNV_Spain.jpg?v=1789525334","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/pasal-de-esile-godello-ribeira-sacra-2024-spain","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
