White Wine O Luar do Sil Godello: The Pago de los Capellanes Winery project in the D.O. Valdeorras is the search for new paths and the attraction of obtaining great white wines.

Pago de los Capellanes founded his new winery O Luar do Sil in Seadur (Valdeorras) in 2014.With this winery, the Rodero Villa family fulfilled their dream of making a white wine with their 100% philosophy, a special, complex and intense wine with long aging.

Luar do Sil Godellos is a white 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 on terraces and carrying out a heroic and manual harvest that puts the grapes to the test. more experienced winegrowers, all to achieve the intense and mineral character of Godello.

This wine is the faithful reflection of what the landscape of the Valdeorras area is, seeking its most sincere elaboration and the most expansive and jovial entry of the fashionable white variety: La Godello. The result is purity, freshness, character, clarity and life.

The name of this wine, O Luar do Sil, transmits the charm of the moon in the waters of the Sil River, the great River of Valdeorras.

O Luar de Sil Godello is made in a completely artisanal way, after manual harvesting and a meticulous selection of grapes on a selection table, the grapes are completely destemmed. Once the temperature has been lowered to 9°C, it rests for 4 hours in the macerators. From there it goes to the press and with a gentle crushing, top quality must is obtained. This must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Once the fermentation is finished, the lees are separated from the wine and it rests for a few months until bottling.

This wine has a limited edition and usually sells out quickly since it is one of the emblems of Bodega Pago de los Capellanes, so we recommend you not miss the opportunity to try it while it is available, it will surprise you!
