Description
100% Palomino
This single-vineyard Fino is produced the old way, fermented in cask and matured in a solera of five stages (4 criaderas + solera, one rocío per year) before being bottled at around 8 years of age.
On the nose, plenty of almond notes, hints of slightly sweet and sour bread dough and haybales. Saline touches. Some dried Mediterranean herbs (rosemary, thyme) and the slightest hint of dried apricots in the background. Light hints of cabezuelas (dead yeast cells which fall to the bottom of a cask). Complex, smooth and inviting. The palate has a very dry and vivid onset, with a nice zingy acidity and a light peppery touch. Then showing more salted almonds, bitter herbal touches and grapefruit zest. Quite rich and saline. Long finish, which is dry with a clear chalky touch. 15% ABV
