Gabo do Xil Branco is a blend of Godello and other local varieties grown on the epic river banks of Galicia.
The Godello grape gives a natural weight to the palate, yet the maritime climate, and slate soils ensure that the wine has plenty of lift on the palate with salinity and mineral freshness.
Telmo Rodriguez is a household name in the Spanish wine scene, but in 1994 when he started his company, he was very much a revolutionary. A key part of the "new-wave" Spanish wine movement, he seeks out unique, forgotten vineyards, focussing efforts on single-site wines that are expressive of their origins.
