Bodega Luna Beberide

The wine region of Bierzo is located in North West Spain, half way between coastal Galicia and Rueda. It should come as no great surprise therefore, that its fashionable white variety, Godello, borrows certain characteristics from both Albarino and Verdejo, some maintain that it has borrowed the best of each and is thus the most noble of the three.

Be that as it may, there is no doubt of the quality of the family run Bodega Luna Beberide, which farms over 70 hectares, much of it at altitudes of up to 750 metres, its soils made from decomposed slate and calcerous clay. The vines are 60 years old and the yields, at 25 hl/hr, are impressively low.
