Tasting note
Fino is the lightest style of sherry, yet nonetheless perfumed and full of flavour: fresh bread, almonds and Andalusian orange blossom.
Vinification
The Palomino grapes are hand-harvested from 40 year old vines in late August. The must comes from the gentle 1st pressing and is fermented to dryness before fortification.The wine is then aged under a layer of flor in the traditional solera system, preventing any oxidation, for an average of 4 years.
Food Match
Nuts, olives, shellfish (crab, cockles, langoustines), cured meats, sushi, garlicky snails, baked fish, clams in a white wine sauce...
