Murky purple glow like ube pudding, smells like soft furry raspberries, pencil sharpener overflowing with shavings and broken graphite. Tastes like something bottled yesterday, very fresh, very direct, but really tasty. — 2 years ago

Val’s. 2 months under the flor. Smells of the ocean. Quite savoury. — 2 years ago

Blend of different types of Palomino (Palomino Fino, Palomino Jerez and Palomino Pelusón) from a single vineyard within the Pago de Carrascal, in Sanlúcar (not to be confused with the eponymous Carrascal in Jerez, further inland). Located to the south of Miraflores, this is one of the most Atlantic influenced Pagos in Sanlucar, and also one of the first to be replanted after phylloxera – with vines over 100+ years old. Elegant, mineral, saline — 2 years ago

Whoa this actually smells like nutty banana dessert with salted caramel sauce!! So much ripe fruit through both nose and palate but without diminished acid... wow it’s actually so creamy it’s remarkable. Bit of grip in the top palate similar to walnut skin and a sharp steely mineral streak through the center.... odd odd wine but absolutely delicious. Curious about his this is vinified - would guess concrete with some new oak?? — 7 years ago

This is the first palomino I've had that wasn't barrel aged and fortified into sherry and it was a brilliant pairing with a popping umami dish of shrimp head tartare.
I'm definitely going to look for it back home

Very nice wine and one of the more interesting wines I’ve tried in a long time. Same grape as sherry but other than a bit of time on the flor this is actually not a sherry, it’s a wine wine. The flor gives it a sensation of skin contact in an interesting way. Very salty with great acid. Really enjoyable. — 5 years ago
