O Luar Do Sil sobre lías White wine
O Luar Do Sil sobre lías is a remarkable white wine from the Valdeorras designation of origin, expertly crafted by Bodegas Pago de los Capellanes. This 2023 vintage, made exclusively from the native Godello grape, embodies the unique terroir of its region, where the River Sil carves a stunning valley laden with slate and granite soils, accompanied by a distinct climate that enhances the wine's character.
This wine is the fruit of the passion and dedication of the Rodero Villa family, who have embarked on a journey to create something truly special—an intense, complex white wine with the potential for aging. The Godello variety, known for its rarity and rich personality, is the cornerstone of their project. With a meticulous vinification process, the grapes undergo a cold maceration to extract the maximum expression of their fruitiness, followed by gentle pressing. The fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, lasting 14 days, which allows the wine to develop its intricate flavors.
O Luar Do Sil sobre lías displays a captivating intense gold color with persistent tears, indicative of its quality. On the nose, it reveals a refined complexity, with delicate notes of white and wildflowers. In the mouth, it strikes a harmonious balance between fresh green fruit and the maturity brought by the fine lees, resulting in a pleasant and sophisticated palate that showcases both fruity and mineral sensations.
This exquisite wine pairs wonderfully with seafood, shellfish, salmon, cod, and soft cheeses, making it an ideal choice for those looking to enhance their dining experience with a touch of Galician tradition and excellence. Treat yourself to the allure of O Luar Do Sil sobre lías, where authenticity meets craftsmanship.
