El Maestro Sierra, Palo Cortado Sherry, Andalucía, Spain
Tasting Note: Palo Cortado royalty in your glass.
Medium-tending-towards-deep-intensity amber in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of brioche, butter, bread dough, rancio and wet-warm hay with hints of medium-toasted toast.
On the palate the dry, full-bodied Palo Cortado Sherry has medium-plus-intensity flavors suggested on the nose ultimately completing with a long, buttery finish.
This Palo Cortado has the complexity on the midpalate you crave with depth, elegance and concentration.
You’ll want to have another glass (and you should).
