Join us in this private wine tour of the Valdeorras wine region, where you will be able to enjoy the elegant and smooth Godellos.
Discover the Soul of Godello: A Private Wine Tour of Valdeorras
Uncover the “Valley of Gold” on an exclusive, private journey through the Valdeorras D.O.—Galicia’s eastern gateway and the spiritual home of the Godello grape. This isn’t just a simple wine tasting; rather, it’s an immersive exploration of a landscape shaped by Roman history, the slate mountains, and some of the world’s most sophisticated white wines.
Why Valdeorras?
While the world has fallen in love with Albariño, those in the know look to Valdeorras. Nestled along the Sil River, this region offers a unique microclimate and diverse soils—ranging from deep red clays to shimmering slate. Consequently, these conditions give Godello its signature minerality, structure, and incredible aging potential.
Your Bespoke Itinerary Includes:
Elite Winery Access: Visit prestigious estates and boutique colleiteiros that are usually closed to the public.
The Godello Masterclass: Taste the full spectrum, from crisp, young wines to complex, lees-aged, and barrel-fermented vintages.
The “Coves” Experience: Step back in time with a visit to traditional underground caves—ancient hand-carved cellars that have been used for centuries.
Gourmet Terroir Pairing: Enjoy a private lunch featuring local delicacies like Androlla and artisanal cheeses, specifically curated to elevate the tasting experience.
Expert Guidance: Be accompanied by a local sommelier or wine historian who will unravel the secrets of the Sil River valley.
The Stars of the Show: Godello & Mencía
In addition to the undisputed queen—Godello—which offers notes of stone fruit and wild herbs with a saline finish, Valdeorras produces exceptional red wines. You will also discover the elegant, floral Mencía and the rare Sousón, which thrive in the region’s steep, terraced vineyards.
Ultimately, this dual focus allows you to experience the full aromatic range of the Valdeorras Appellation of Origin. Whether you prefer the crisp acidity of a white or the earthy depth of a red, the diversity here is unparalleled.
