Among the <strong>177 wines tasted blind<\/strong>, Regueir\u00f3n received <strong>97 points<\/strong>, <strong>the highest score of the report and the only wine to achieve this distinction. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The tasting panel, chaired by Spanish wine specialist Beth Willard and joined by Andy Howard MW and Ines Salpico, highlighted <strong>Regueir\u00f3n\u2019s remarkable ability to express both the Godello<\/strong>\u00a0grape variety and its origin in\u00a0<strong>Valdeorras<\/strong>. The wine received two scores of 97 points and one of 96 points, resulting in a final average score of 97.<\/p>\n<p>Sourced from a single vineyard parcel in <strong>\u00c9ntoma<\/strong>, planted on slate terraces, Regueir\u00f3n also reflects the work carried out by Virgen del Galir since joining CVNE in 2018. During this period, the winery has focused on recovering historic vineyards and abandoned plots across its 40 hectares of vineyards in Valdeorras.<\/p>\n<p>The judges\u2019 tasting notes underline the wine\u2019s personality and strong connection to its place of origin. For Beth Willard, it is<em>\u201ca true and beautiful expression of the grape variety and the region,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0while Andy Howard MW highlights its refined character and purity of fruit. Ines Salpico, meanwhile, praises its balance between freshness and structure, as well as its impressive length on the palate.<\/p>\n<p>This latest accolade builds on Regueir\u00f3n\u2019s outstanding recent track record with international critics. Just a few weeks ago, the wine received <strong>98 points from Beth Willard in Tim Atkin MW\u2019s Galicia Report<\/strong>, a publication in which <strong>Miguel Tienda, Technical Director of Virgen del Galir, was also named<\/strong> <strong>Winemaker of the Year<\/strong>. Together, these recognitions confirm the remarkable momentum behind this Valdeorras project and the growing acclaim enjoyed by its wines.<\/p>\n<p>This new achievement places Regueir\u00f3n at the very top of one of the most ambitious Spanish white wine tastings recently conducted by\u00a0<em>Decanter<\/em>, a selection that brought together wines from every corner of Spain. More than 90% of the entries scored over 90 points, but only one wine reached 97: Regueir\u00f3n Godello 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regueir\u00f3n Godello 2024, from Virgen del Galir, has emerged as the highest-scoring wine in Decanter\u2019s\u201cSpanish Premium White Wines\u201d\u00a0tasting, one of the most comprehensive assessments of Spanish white wines published by the renowned international wine magazine.
