| High extact, Palo Cortado/Amontillado feel. Soft, nice balance, well integrated oak, sugar, alcohol. Slightly sappy on finish. |
| Bruise apple, flor characters. Palate shows good balance, sweetness to balance aldehyde, acid keeps it fresh. |
| Quite brandy spirited nose but some nice vanilla and tea. Interestingly light and savoury but lack of depth exposes alcohol and gives a slightly hollow feel. Interesting savoury and zest notes though. |
| palest of amber tinge. hazlenut, sea spray, almond - med intensity. med flavour intensity of simple hazlenut. short length stripped |

| Palomino grapes hand-picked in late March 2018. Spanish variety. Crusher destemmer, fermentation on skins, basket pressed, and matured in French Oak barrels. No Earth filter or fining agents were used. Serve as an aperitif or digestif, straight or over ice. A must for trifles and other desserts. |
