Godelia Libamus Bierzo Mencia Dulce
Godelia Libamus Bierzo Mencía Dulce 2023 is a rare and exceptional dessert wine produced by Bodegas Godelia, a family-owned winery established in 2009 in the El Bierzo region of northwest Spain. The winery is renowned for its commitment to sustainable viticulture and its focus on native grape varieties, particularly Mencía and Godello.
This unique wine is crafted exclusively from overripe Mencía grapes sourced from 80-year-old vines situated at 700 meters above sea level on soils rich in quartzite and slate. The production process involves meticulous manual harvesting in 15 kg boxes, followed by thermal treatment of the grapes at 5ºC. Cryomaceration is performed for 10 days, and fermentation is carefully controlled at 20ºC, then halted by cooling to 5ºC. The wine undergoes an extended 30-day maceration with the skins and is aged for eight months in 400-liter new French oak barrels, imparting complexity and depth.
The 2023 vintage presents a deep picota red color with intense aromas of red fruits, vanilla, and cocoa, complemented by a mineral background. On the palate, it is sweet, concentrated, and balanced, with a velvety finish.
Libamus pairs beautifully with dark chocolate desserts, blue cheeses, game meats, and dishes featuring sweet and sour sauces. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 15ºC, it offers a luxurious and memorable tasting experience.
