This is a "wow" Sherry. A fantastic juxtaposition of delicacy and energy. The acidity is the unifying element that brings together the briny, nutty & fruity elements which permeate the nose and palate alike. The body is ethereal & as it breathes the richness of the hazelnut & apricot notes pick up, again creating a captivating tension for a the senses. There is a mystery to this as it shows an unrelenting smoky/caramel note on the back of the palate which lingers beautifully on the finish. This is a fully realized, authentic wine of composure. Get ahold of some.
