  July 14, 2021 - I'm a bit of a newbie to sherry but this is my kind of drink. Not as harsh and dry as some of the fino I tried from TWS, this is much purer and easy to enjoy. Absolutely lovely with some salted nuts or choclo, recommended!

  March 10, 2021 - Even on a cold late afternoon with the fire going, a big red is too weighty, and tea or a cocktail aren't quite right. This sherry fits the bill, with with a few crackers on the side. Nice chestnut color, dark flavors of dry-treacle or toffee, plus almonds and walnuts in the mix. Maybe a touch of burnt orange. Good mouth-watering acidity. Very nice. Purchased in 500ml format.

  January 30, 2021 - Not a fan of oxidative wines, so this was really hard work for me. Darker color than the vin jaune next to it. A bit of dried fruit and dark coffe and nutty aromas but the overall experience is dominated by the acetaldehyde aromas of oxidative aging, very dry, unpleasant at least for my palate.
