Jerez double-aged style (Palomino, flor veil then oxidative): exclusive Palomino as dry fortified white — topaz to amber robe, subtle ethereal bouquet of hazelnut, aromatic herbs, plants and dark tobacco, light smooth mouth, balanced acidity, dry finish with walnut and wood notes.

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: Metis (grape variety)

A grape variety resulting from the crossing of two varieties of the same species. For example, pinotage (a South African grape variety) is the result of crossing pinot noir and cinsault.
