Tasting-"Pazo de Monterrey Godello 2014"

Name: Pazo de Monterrey Godello 2014
Variety: Godello
Region: Monterrei
Country: Spain
Year: 2014
Price: Regular $15, Sale $5.95

Winery 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:  This honey colored wine had a light aroma of honeysuckle.  The taste of alcohol was strong, accentuated with components of lime and pears, crisply acidic.  The wine was very delicate with a smooth finish.  I did not pair this wine with food but it could go well with a fishy meal.
