The wine region of Oloroso Sherry

Dry, oxidative Jerez style (Palomino, ageing without flor, fortified to 17°, second pressing more structured): Palomino is the exclusive signature fortified white king — amber to mahogany in colour depending on age, dominant walnut bouquet, toasted, balsamic and noble wood notes, golden tobacco and autumn leaves, full and glycerine-rich palate, long retro-olfaction, elegant dry finish. Solera evaporation (merma) 3–5%/year, serving temperature 20–22°.


The wine region of Andalousie

Dry, sun-baked southern Spain, world cradle of fortified and oxidative wines. Sherry from Jerez is the signature: Palomino Fino under a veil of flor yields lively, saline Fino with signature notes of almond, yeast, green apple and a sharp iodine edge; more maritime Manzanilla (Sanlúcar); unveiled Oloroso in grand oxidation (walnut, caramel, tobacco). Pedro Ximénez from Montilla-Moriles: intense dark sweet (fig, raisin, coffee, molasses). Also muscat Málaga.

The word of the wine: Tastevin

Metal cup, wide and of low height, being used to mirror and taste the wine. Still used in wine brotherhoods for its emblematic and folkloric character, the tastevin has been replaced by the various tasting glasses.
