Rafael Palacios Louro Do Bolo is a vibrant and textural white from Valdeorras, Galicia, Spain, crafted from 100% Godello sourced from biodynamically and organically farmed terraces in O Bolo. The 25-year-old vines grow at over 600 meters on sandy granitic soils with clay deposits, producing grapes of exceptional aromatic intensity and minerality. The wine is gently pressed and fermented in 35-hectolitre French oak foudres, then aged on its lees for four months, resulting in a lemon-coloured wine with golden highlights, expressive aromas of lemon, ripe stone fruit, and fennel, a saline edge, and a mineral, textural finish.
