Bodegas Lustau, Palo Cortado, Almacenista Cayetano del Pino y Cía, Jerez, Spain

Description

Relatively new to the celebrated Almacenista family, this 22 butt Solera produces an enigmatically fresh yet persuasively powerful Palo Cortado, the sherry style which is to me both the hardest to fathom and, not unrelated, the most potentially rewarding. Stylistically it sits half way between Amontillado and Oloroso, maintaining the elegance of the former and the nutty complexity of the later, combining them effortlessly with a mysterious and nearly alchemical brio.

Critics reviews

Luis Gutiérrez 91/100
The NV Almacenista Vides Palo Cortado is from Jerez, the warmer and drier city, has a light- to medium-amber color and a pretty nose of hazelnuts, dehydrated apricots and a lactic note. The medium-bodied palate has a distinct dry note of hazelnut skin, good persistence and length. Drink 2013-2017.Luis Gutirrez - 29/08/2013
