"Lovely floral nose with restrained apricot fruit – perhaps a little underripe, and maybe just a little bit oxidised on the finish (this is from a previously Coravinned bottle). (RH) 13.5%"

"The white 2022 Ultreia Godello is a blend of five different plots, most of them in Cacabelos. It has a very expressive nose, with notes of yellow fruit, flowers and white pepper. It's round and fleshy, with moderate ripeness and alcohol (around 12.5%), a little balsamic with the tender mouthfeel from the riper year. It had different vinifications and élevages and comes through as complex and balanced, quite impressive for the year. 45,000 bottles produced."
