Tuesday, December 18, 2012 - I don't think I've managed to grok Palo Cortado yet as a general category, but I've had others I've liked more than this. This is very brown and while it has some crispness and a saltwater taffee thing going on, I just don't find this dark, muddled style as appealing as a fino; admittedly this doesn't have an oxidative taste but the oxidative *effect* seems to have muted or muddled a lot of what I like to see without bringing out anything else to show for it except the browning. It also feels somewhat stiff which makes it a slow sipper.
