2023/9-10. A very rich amontillado, with lots of dried fruits, walnuts and other oxidative notes. But the robust acidity and hint of flor reminds one of its origins…

Oct 6th, 2023July / August 2021. Intense and serious - to the point you can’t have more than a (small) glass or two at a time. Nuts, golden raisins, intense minerality.

Aug 8th, 20212021/4 with jamon, potato and truffle tortilla, paella, etc. This bottle was on the oxidative side of amontillado- lots of dried stone fruits, cream, and nuts - and very delicious.

Apr 11th, 20212021/1/10-14 as an aperitif and with chorizo, grilled buri, etc. Opens slightly austere and high-toned, and then passes through a mild rancio phase, but after a couple of days reveals some really lovely fruit notes - golden raisin, dried apricot, etc. - as well as almond, hazelnut, golden syrup, etc. Almost like a great Speyside malt (go figure, though oloroso barrels are more typically used there).
