Established in 2004, Rafael Palacios has rapidly become one of Spain’s greatest producers of white wine. Based in the Val do Bibei subregion of Valdeorras, Galicia, his focus is on the local variety Godello, which he sources from the areas steep-sided, terraced vineyards.
As Sortes is made with grapes from six low-yielding parcels planted in the 1970s and 80s located in Santa Cruz do Bolo. His winemaking philosophy is minimal intervention with this wine simply being fermented in 500-litre French oak barrels with a period of maturation on lees before bottling. This is an incredibly aromatic and intense wine, offering up beautiful notes of stone fruits, citrus, wild flowers and crushed minerals.
