Algueira Brandán Godello 2023
Made solely from Godello grapes, the wine Algueira Brandán Godello is the entry-level Spanish white wine of Adega Algueira, one of the first wineries to put DO Ribeira Sacra in the map of world wine.
This varietal white wine from Ribeira Sacra is produced from estate-owned vineyards with slate soils located alongside the Sil canyon. The area has a Mediterranean climate with some Continental elements.
