Tasting notes
The 2021 Godello Sorte O Soro originates from a 1978 plot in Santa Cruz, O Bolo and was fermented and aged in 500-liter oak barrels for eight months. Light gold in color, its intense aroma reveals notes of green apple and herbs, complemented by nuttiness and hints of acacia. It presents a complex and delicate profile against an oaky backdrop. Dry, concentrated and refreshing on the palate, it lingers long with its intricate flavors—a truly beautiful white wine.

I love the incisive character of the 2021 Sorte O Soro, sharp and laser cut, a cold wine, austere, subtle, precise, clean and a sensation of vin de garde, harmonious, and despite being 100% new oak, the wine does not show any oak aromas or flavors; it has purity and energy, with light and a vibrant palate with purity and elegance that reminded me of some of the wines from Jean-Marc Roulot in Burgundy. This is the wine with the lowest pH and highest acidity, and the wine can take the oak with no problem. This is about the vineyard, the granite soils. It finishes with a clear salty touch; you lick your lips, and they are salty. It should develop nicely in bottle.
