Grapes: Palomino
Region : Spain, Jerez
Soils: Tosca Serada
Vinification: Barrel
Aging: 5 years in barrel
Nose: quite a mineral and vegetal nose. Lots of dried shrubs by the beach, as well as some seaweed, green almonds, sunflower seeds and plenty of yeasty notes (almost beer-like). Dried Mediterranean herbs and dried wildflowers. Wet rocks. Subtle lemon and bruised apple. A very light hint of oxidation as well.
Mouth: still very mineral, with bright citrusy notes, more almonds and flor. There’s a certain sharpness to it, with traces of bitterness, herbs and salinity. Hints of walnuts after a while. Quite a long, dry and umami finish.
