This is the. Bodegas Cortijo La Fuente.
A Fino from Mollina, heart of Andalusia.
Made from Pedro Ximinez, in solera for 5 years. Vineyard farmed since 19th C.
Limestone and sand.
You can sense the “ heavinesses “ of the Pedro Ximiniez on the nose, but it’s an almond fest, dry, w a touch of barrel and raisin to finish. Brandy like.
Not heavy on the palate.
Another discovery.

Diferente a un rosado clásico, sin acidez, con cuerpo y recuerdo. Fresa y frambuesa.

5 litracos pero lleva mucho tiempo guardado esto hay que bébeselo en el día. El corcho deshecho de estar tanto tiempo guardado y por eso se ha agriado un poco el sabor pero muy bueno como todos los cotos d hayas bebido en mi cortijo con toda la family — 3 years ago

Excepcional custo-benefício.
Aos olhos - vermelho púrpura intenso
Ao nariz - frutas do bosque e hortelã
Na boca, taninos macios, bom corpo, frescor e final muito agradável
Personalidade marcante, mas de fácil lida.
Vai bem com queijos de meia cura e massas com molhos vermelhos. — 5 years ago

I asked the Somm to recommend a wine from Andalusia to pair with the region’s cuisines. Without hesitation, he picked out this bottle from a winery based in Ronda, a town I visited more than 10 years ago and have vivid memories of.
This is the flagship bottling of the winery with 100% Petit Verdot aged 12 months in clay amphorae.
It’s rich and savory just like to cuisine, and also has the lively acidity and aromatic intensity to counter those richness. What a great pairing! — 9 days ago
