Wellington 20 Years VOS Palo Cortado Sanlúcar de Barrameda Palomino Fino

NV. By the glass selection to have with our first round of tapas including grilled eggplant, red peppers, and onion with a sherry vinegar dressing. Great nose and mouthfeel. Loved it. — 10 months ago

La Panesa Fino Especial Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

A very unusual Fino, aged in the solera system for an average of 15 years (much longer than most Finos, closer to an Amontillado). Deep golden color. Elegant nose with yeasty and nutty aromas. Intense on the palate. Almonds, bitter notes. Long finish — 5 years ago

Pastrana Single Vineyard Manzanilla Pasada Palomino

Such an amazing value! I feel the smell of Guadalquivir meeting the Atlantic, dry and high acid, elegant nose of ocean, almonds and sand. Take me to Sanlúcar any day, any time — 7 months ago

Bodegas El Nido

Clio Jumilla Monastrell-Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2021

Delectable Wine
9.4

The 2021 Clio is a blend of 70% Monastrell and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from the 1936-planted Zingla Vineyard in Jumilla. Aged for 23 months in French and American oak, this garnet-hued wine offers complex aromas of herbs and plums, complemented notes of mint, balsamic and ash. Concentrated and rich on the palate, it flows with a silky texture, culminating in a velvety finish. This is a ripe, sun-kissed red with a precisely executed barrel-aging regimen.

La Gitana Manzanilla Sherry

My last half bottle. See previous note in October 2023. Previous notes apply. From the palomino grape. I’m still trying to “get” Sherry. One day I’ll try a fresh young Manzanilla in Sanlucar de Barrameda with freshly caught cooked Langoustines, as recommended. Light herbal notes with almonds, mouldy apple and medium plus salinity. Light bodied. Yeasty. Bone dry. 15% ABV. — 10 months ago

El Nido Jumilla Cabernet Sauvignon Monastrell 2021

Delectable Wine
9.2

The 2021 El Nido is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Monastrell from Jumilla. Aged for 22 months in American and French oak barrels, this garnet-red wine offers forward aromas, with prominent oak followed by notes of tomato leaf and ripe black fruit. Big and rich, the palate is bold and substantial, finishing with ripe fruit flavors. Despite all that ripeness, there are some slightly green notes here. The 2021 is a carefully crafted red that’s both savory and stylish. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, September 2024)
