Palo Cortado 'Regente'
$100.00 RRP
Palo Cortado is the weirdest of Sherry classifications: a mixture of Oloroso aromatics and the lean drive of Amontillado, formed when Fino barrels fail to conform to style. A great Sherry to serve with meats. 15 years old, only 30 barrels in production.
Has a golden syrup rich nose, the mustard fruits on palate at entry becomes increasingly lean and dry with an ultra salty-flinty finish ... the memory of the Fino it so-nearly was.
