Wine of the year, two years in a row!
I first heard about Godello Grapes from Spain some years ago, and lucky me I had the chance in that moment to get a bottle of Bioca Godello from the Winery Maria Teresa Nuñez de la Vega, one of the best specialized wineries in Spain in Godello wines. Almost at the same time, like a strange game played by destiny, I rented a flat in Madrid and the owner of the place was also the owner of a winery, and there I was, sitting in a living room signing a leasing agreement and the name of the owner of the place written in the contract was Maria Teresa Nuñez de la Vega.
After many years knowing them and talking about all the hard work they were doing in the winery to achieve the goal of making one of the best wines in Spain, they finally achieved it. According to the The World Ranking Wines & Spirits made by the World Association of Writers and Journalists of Wines and Spirits, Bioca Godello 2013 was the best white wine worldwide and top five in the ranking in 2015, achieving the distinction of Wine of the year 2015.
This ranking is the most serious and prestigious global ranking system (created in 1996), since the living they earn, are chosen blindly by people from around the world including the Top winemakers, engineers or specialists in wines and spirits, journalists, importers, buyers, consumers qualified sommeliers and wine lovers, among others, from more than 120 countries.
But the history doesn’t end just there, for second year in a row, now with the 2014`s Vintage, Bioca Godello is in the top 10 list, at the 7th position, achieving again the title Wine of the year 2016.
It’s such a pleasure to have this “Champion” in our catalogue since the beginning, and we are sure that this wine is going to be Wine of the Year in the next man years to come.
