In a Gadda da Vida Blanc 2019, La Senda
This wine is made up of half Godello grapes, the rest being Doña Blanca, Palomino and Malvasia (Malvasia), all from several old plots whose vines are seventy to ninety years old. The vineyard is located in the north of Bierzo, on quartz-clayey limestone soils, at an altitude of 550 meters. The grapes macerate for one hundred and ten days in old open oak and chestnut barrels, then the wine is aged in French oak barrels for five months. No filtration is done, no sulfites are added. It is a beautiful, thirst-quenching white wine with character, a golden color and notes of yellow fruits, very dry with a certain fatness and an oxidative note due to aging in open barrels. Its length in the mouth and its "fourth dimension" character justify the name of the vintage: that of a song by the Californian group Iron Butterfly (1968) which, seventeen minutes long, launched the fashion for endless psychedelic pieces in the 70s. Serve chilled as an aperitif with the best grilled fish and seafood.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
