L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The 2014 Gouveio Vértice Espumante Bruto, was disgorged in October 2021 (the date is on the label) after 77 months on the lees. It comes in at 12.1% alcohol. About 50% of the blend was aged in used French oak for nine months. The label here says "Gouveio," but that is a grape with a complicated history and lots of errors. It is actually, in the winery's plot here, Godello. Surprisingly fresh, a lot more than the Millésime, which had a similar time on the lees, this is bright and lively, energetic but refined. It's very tasty too. The winemakers explain it simply: "It's the variety." This is super, not as big as some years but always sophisticated. It should age well.
