On the palate the dry, full-bodied Palo Cortado Sherry has medium-plus-intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and completing with a long finish.
Complexity abounds throughout the entire length of the taste with pleasing esters impart give depth and refresh the palate.
An excellent Palo Cortado VORS!
