Rey Fernando de Castilla
Antique Palo Cortado Sherry
Beautiful wine. Blend of 30+ year old nutty deliciousness. Dark caramel and amber colors. Rich and fuller bodied with burnt caramel, oranges, almonds and toasted hazelnuts at the finish line. Perfect acid balance from the get go. Length along the palate for miles. 20% ABV.

2 people found it helpfulJan 9th, 2014A very complex and layered wine. Great depth. Toasted nuts, graham cracker pie crust, dried apricot, golden raisins, crushed rocks, pain aux raisins, sea salt. There's a great earthy layer almost like damp button mushrooms. Lots of umami character. Love the nose, almost with this allusion that theres lots of RS but palate is defined and elegant. A beam of acid followed by a finish that is very persistent.

Apr 1st, 2016Brilliant wine, salty, bread dough, with caramel and roasted nuts. The oxidized component here impeccably weaves the aromas, flavors and offsets with enough freshness to keep things light on their feet. A long, clean and focused finish. #sherry #palocortado #casilla
