Richly textured, mineral, wonderful saline wine. Some fresh and preserved citrus and crushed stone fruit, plus lightly toasted almond notes coming through too. Wonderful oceanic mineral bitterness from the sherry addition on the finish. I intend to buy a case to forget about for 20 years.

This is the best $25 bottle of white you could buy for immediate enjoyment or cellaring.
