A white with dried-pear and nougat aromas and flavors and just a hint of coconut. It’s medium-bodied with a fresh, steely finish. Refined and tight. New wine from California’s Paul Hobbs in Riberia Sacra. JS
Alvaredos-Hobbs Godello 2020 (Clearance sale item – other promotion offers and W Rewards are not applicable)
A nervy nose with some gravel minerals and a very subtle, lactic and nutty edge to the limey fruit and green apples. Some fine macadamia nuts, too. Intense limey flavors and mealy acidity bind together, driving the textured, medium to full bodied palate to a long, creamy yet nuanced finish. JS
