This bottle was too old. It had very little fizz and smelled of sherry. However, its colour was gold rather than brown and on the palate, it was not oxidised. It was full of honey and not unpleasant. I guess it would have been lovely up to about 10 years ago. But now it's not interesting enough to drink the whole glass.

A pleasant surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed this bottle. With few bubbles this wine opens to caramel notes, eventually taking on an almost manzanilla-like complexion. Rich in the mouth.
