Martin Codax Mara Martin Monterrei DO Godello 2019 $25

How cool is the name ‘Codax’? It’s like something an evil villain in one of the Die Hard movies would be called. Or the name of a secret agent who also happens to be a highly intelligent German shepherd, deep undercover as the household pet of an unsuspecting suburban family. This snappy-dry, mineral-edged, crushed-shell sensation sits up and says ‘Gidday!’ faster than I can smack my lips. Crafted in a vegan-friendly fashion, it shows lemon pith and grapefruit grip atop a long, prickly texture. Teriyaki snapper? Superb!
