A wine with a special and unique character. The Palo Cortado is born from special fino butts that, for several reasons, take a different path from the rest. It loses the veil of flor early on and starts the oxidative ageing. It stays in this peculiar ageing for around 25 years.
D.O.P. Montilla-Moriles.
Amber tonality with copper and greenish reflections. Very intense with tobacco leaves, wood and spices like pepper and clove aromas, notes of citric peel and fine pastries. Nuts like walnut or hazelnut nuances. Dry entry, but mouth-filling, well-defined acidity that disappears to leave room for a saline sensation. Intense and elegant.
Were commend it with bull’s tail, roasted lamb, spiced partridge, hare civet and well-roasted game. It can also be tasted with appetizers, foie, puff pastry and assorted hams.
