Description
On the sunny slopes of Valdeorras, where the river Sil meanders between ancient slate and granite terraces, the Guitián family's vision was born: to rescue the soul of the Godello and raise it to its maximum expression. It was in the 1990s when they decided to bet, against the tide, on this then almost forgotten variety. With unwavering confidence in its potential and in the unique minerality of its terroir, they cultivated their vines in poor, acidic and well-drained soils, facing southeast, always seeking the purest and most vibrant expression of the land.
The Guitián estate, located in the heart of the Valdeorras D.O. (Ourense, Galicia), is a mosaic of pampered plots under a continental climate with Atlantic influence, cold winters and warm summers, ideal for the slow ripening of the grapes. Each vintage is a dialogue between tradition, technical rigour and a deep emotional connection with the vineyard. The Godello made here is serious, deep, uncompromising. And this Guitián Godello Sobre Lías is perhaps its maximum manifestation.
Winemaking
The elaboration of Guitián Godello Sobre Lías begins with a manual harvest in small boxes, selecting clusters at their optimum point. After destemming and crushing, the must undergoes a cold pre-fermentation maceration, thus extracting an unusual aromatic complexity. Pneumatic pressing at low pressure respects the integrity of the fruit, followed by static racking to guarantee purity in fermentation.
The alcoholic fermentation of Guitián Godello Sobre Lías takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, preserving the varietal character. Then comes the key stage: ageing on fine lees for 4 to 6 months, with weekly pumping over, which provides volume, smoothness and an enveloping texture. After meticulous stabilisation and bottling, the wine rests for at least 2 months in the bottle before being released onto the market.
Taste
Guitián Godello Sobre Lías shines in the glass with a golden yellow tone with greenish reflections, a sign of freshness and youth. On the nose, it is a symphony of ripe peach, dried apricots and orange peel, wrapped in subtle notes of fennel, undergrowth and white flowers. A complex perfume, which does not seek to impress by volume, but by depth.
On the palate, Guitián Godello Sobre Lías is powerful, fresh, with a creamy texture and a long finish. The vibrant acidity sustains the wine, which unfolds with elegance and persistence. The finish is saline, mineral, with echoes of stone fruit and delicate balsamic notes. A serious, Atlantic and gastronomic white wine that speaks with a Galician accent but with universal ambition.
