Wine of the Month: June 2026

“Benedictus Fructus”, 2024, Godello, Bodegas Val de souto, D.O. Ribeiro, Galica

Mr Whirly says;

” So, so excited to have this dream of a wine back in the UK market; its a truly special rendition of the Godello grape, made with class and precision by Jose Manuel Blanco Perez and young winemaker, going places, Pablo Estévez.

Godello is the “in fashion” grape at this moment in time so I urge you to taste with some salty fish, squid or octopus this summer; it’s quite the perfect wine for this. Super clean and linear with hints of mandarin and grapefruit and spring blossom.

Available online in the shop now, arrived 31st May 2026.”
