Way too much VA. Sidra-esque, but fails to deliver the lightness and brisk fruit of sidra to balance the acetic heft.

This is the first palomino I've had that wasn't barrel aged and fortified into sherry and it was a brilliant pairing with a popping umami dish of shrimp head tartare.
I'm definitely going to look for it back home

Great example of the new wave of terroir-driven, non-fortified wines coming from Jerez, aka Vinos de Pasto. This comes from different plots within Pago de Miraflores in Sanlúcar, from 80-90 years old vines rooted in different Albariza soils. Fermented and aged for 8 months in old sherry casks under flor. Pure, fresh, mineral, with notes of dried herbs, yellow apple and a tinge of sherry. Intense, salty, dry. Chalky texture. Very tasty, easy to drink
