Tangy, morish, saline. Rich, almost olorosso like at the start, then bone dry mazanilla flavours with toasted almond notes lasting for ever. Perhaps a little sharp, but makes me want to grab people and say ‘taste this! THIS is sherry’. Also makes me want to buy the whole damn solera.

Still drinking well. Like a hedgerow to the face, paired well with sausages and gravy.

Still surprisingly alive. A stewed fruit nose but on the palate plenty of plum and richness offset by tanin. Paired brilliantly with fatty roast pork.
