This crystalline, fleshy Godello comes from a terraced vineyard that has been painstakingly restored by Algueira's Fernando González. It lies on the cooler, north facing Orense bank of the River Sil, the opposite side to most of Algueira's holdings. Here the 30- to 80-year-old vines are rooted in the losa (schist) soils of the Amandi Gorge. The name of the wine pays tribute to the Celtic ancestry of the region--Brandan was a Celtic warlord who originally settled the area.
