Amontillado 12 Anõs
Palomino grapes fermented dry then fortified and aged first under a protective layer of flor for 6 years, then fortified to 17% to weaken the flor and encourage the oxidative stage of ageing for a further 6 years in the solera system, darkening the colour and adding complexity to the wine.
Tasting Note: Aromas of roasted almond, caramel, brown butter, fig, orange rind on the nose. Dry with savoury on the palate with notes of salted nuts, raisin, green olive, bread dough, a wonderful balance of oxidation notes & ageing under flor, fresh acidity, good length on the umami driven, salty finish.
