March 9, 2024 - Tasted at Virgin Wines event. Rich fruit yet bone dry, shot through with MDF and savoury caramel. Intense, balanced and complex.

January 6, 2024 - Colour: med deep amber, bright, clear.
Nose: full, v fresh, nutty, some woody notes,
Taste: med body, rounded, fresh, excellent fruit notes, touch of caramel , good acidity too, long finish, bone dry, dried fruits.
Overall, excellent example which must be served barely chilled to get the full complexity. What strikes me is that, being from Sanlucar, this has seemingly evolved from a Manzanilla with all the salty tang you would expect. -
