Palo Cortado

From Palomino grapes, a special bottling from only 4 barrels of unknown age, the solera is estimated to be over 70 years old. A Palo Cortado starts off as a Fino, ageing under a layer of flor, but at some point naturally started to change course and end as an oxidative ageing Oloroso. A very rare and special release with around 250 half bottles released each year. 

Tasting Note: Very aromatic with notes of cinnamon pastry, roast chestnuts, walnuts, dried mushroom, barnyard, cedar on the nose. Dry, deep, and intense, amazing complexity with notes of roast coffee & nuts, orange peel, dried herb, very layered, a long persistent finish that is a bit salty. Majestic!
