Finca Os Cobatos 2012 Godello, Monterrei DO
Rating: 87

My instincts tell me that Godello should assume increasing importance for shrewd consumers looking for an excellent dry white wine with plenty of vibrancy and character. Sadly, there is not a lot of this indigenous varietal found in Spain. It tends to do well in high altitude, rocky soils, and while it can handle some oak influence, it is usually at its finest with minimal oak and a naked presentation. That is exactly what the 2012 Finca Os Cobatos offers. From slate and quartz soils and an altitude of 600 meters, this medium-bodied white exhibits lots of honeyed citrus and tropical fruit notes, a touch of minerality and good freshness, vibrancy and zest. Drink it over the next year.
