White Wine O Luar do Sil Godello: The project of Bodega Pago de los Capellanes in the D.O. Valdeorras, is the search for new ways and the attraction to get great white wines.
Pago de los Capellanes founded in 2014 founds its new winery O Luar do Sil in Seadur (Valdeorras)With this winery, the Rodero Villa family fulfilled their dream of making a white wine with their 100% philosophy, a special wine, complex and intense and long aging.
Luar do Sil Godellos is a white wine that seeks to show the purity of the Valdeorras area, a very mineral valley with small vineyards on the slopes with granitic soils that provide a minerality that enhances the intensity of the Godello grape. Old vineyard located at 450m altitude in the municipality of Seadur in the province of Orense.
These vineyards require extreme dedication due to the physical conditions imposed by the terrain, very small plots on steep slopes that can only be worked by hand, taking care of each vine individually by terraces and performing a heroic and manual harvest that tests the most experienced winemakers, all to achieve the intense and mineral character of the Godello.
This wine is a faithful reflection of the landscape of the Valdeorras area, seeking its most sincere elaboration and the most expansive and jovial entry of the most fashionable white variety: Godello. The result is purity, freshness, character, sharpness and life.
The name of this wine, O Luar do Sil, conveys the charm of the moon in the waters of the river Sil, the great river of Valdeorras.
O Luar de Sil Godello is made in a completely artisanal way, after the manual harvest and a thorough selection of grapes in selection table, the grapes are completely destemmed. Once the temperature is lowered to 9°C, it rests for 4 hours in the macerators. From there it goes to the press and with a gentle crushing, first quality must is obtained. This must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Once fermentation is complete, the lees are separated from the wine and it rests for a few months until bottling.
This wine is of limited production and usually sells out quickly as it is one of the emblems of the Bodega Pago de los Capellanes so we recommend you not to miss the opportunity to try it while it is available, it will surprise you!
