SPAIN : CASTILLA Y LEON : BIERZO Godello MED-FULL-BODIED, ELEGANT, LEMON PEEL, STONE FRUIT, MINERAL, HERBAL, BRINY, TOUCH OF OXIDATION, TOAST, USED FRENCH OAK Stately, expressive and age-worthy: rising star Cesar Perez harnesses the beauty and power of 100% Godello vines from a single plot planted in 1918. WINEMAKING : Fruit is hand harvested and undergoes 24 hours of cold maceration after destemming and pressing; fermentation occurs in barrel without batonnage, temperature control, or added yeasts; wine is aged for 11 months completely untouched in used french oak barrels under a layer of flor (responsible for the subtle touch of toasty, oxidative notes). FARMING : Organic PAIRING : Stinky Grilled Cheese Sandwich
