Inocente Macharnudo Vineyard Fino Palomino Fino

Mind Blowing! For a fino sherry, the depth and complexity of this wine is unrivaled. This is THE benchmark for all Finos. The previous reviews do a great job describing the taste. This is the only Fino that still follows traditional methods - aged under flor for 8 - 10 years in an oak Solera. Oh - and the palomino grapes all come from a single vineyard as well. Honestly, there is no better fino than this. Drink it with a plate of smoked ham and almonds or some strong tasting sushi. Enjoy! — 6 years ago

Pegasos Toscana Rosso Sangiovese 2005

2005
Not so clear in terms of composition, blind tasting says it is not typical Sangiovese.
Example of organic wine before it became a mainstream. Very good balance of berries and seems like it was aging in oak 3 years. “I make Sangiovese, the rest are making coke” popular saying of the wine maker 😊

Bodegas Hidalgo

Pastrana Single Vineyard Manzanilla Pasada Sanlúcar de Barrameda Palomino Fino

Exceptional single-vineyard Manzanilla. Bone dry with an agile depth and weight. After 12-14 years in the solera this has a nearly endless finish. Aged manchego, chorizo, Andalusian tripe - versatile and dramatically lovely — 8 years ago

Not for me!! Haha. Wine dinner for some buyers. Though I'm wondering how to make faux duck? That and gyro meat are the holy grail of faux animal!

Gattera Barolo Nebbiolo

Fantastic Barolo - lighter and silkier than most Barolos, but plenty of tannins, dark fruit and mild tobacco for a nice balance and complexity — 8 years ago

Tio Pepe 'Fino En Rama' Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

Very good quality with a solid expression of its provenance and a good length. Bruised apples, yeast, bread, iodine and a dry chalkiness puts this right where it belongs a good concentration on the palate which could last longer. As all serious sherries it is performing well above its price which takes you the question that everyone ask themselves, why don’t I drink more sherry? — 6 years ago

The wine’s nose is vibrant and fresh with nutty aromas of yeast and salinity. A raisiny note adds counterpoint. On the palate it is rich and substantial. It’s very, very dry and has quite a long finish. — 9 years ago
