WINE DESCRIPTION
This wine is a creation of Bodegas Godelia, a winery that prides itself on combining traditional winemaking methods with modern techniques to produce wines of outstanding quality. The Mencía grape, native to this region, is the star of this wine, perfectly adapted to the unique microclimate and slate-dominated soils of Bierzo. This grape variety is known for producing wines with great aromatic complexity and a perfect balance between fruit and acidity.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Bodegas Godelia Godelia Mencía displays a deep, ruby red color, signaling its intensity and richness.On the nose, it offers a compelling blend of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, complemented by floral notes, and a hint of minerality, which is a signature characteristic of the Bierzo region's terroir. The palate is treated to a medium to full-bodied wine, where the fruit flavors are enriched with layers of spice, licorice, and a subtle smokiness from the oak aging. The tannins are well-structured but smooth, leading to a wine that is both robust and elegant. The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering taste of fruit and spice.
