A delightful mix of jellied fruit candies, pineapple and candied hazelnuts greeted the Panel at first nosing. We also got malt loaf, walnuts and hints of old pipe tobacco. The sherry component was clear and generous. With water the nose revealed pickled ginger, bay leaf, burlap and walnut oil. The neat palate displayed a wonderful integration between spirt and sherry influence: soft brown bread spread with molasses, dried exotic fruit chunks and meatier aspects such as serrano ham.
Water brought back the juicer and sweeter qualities, evoking plum wine, raisins, sultanas and dessert wines. In the finish we got a funky tang of salty, bodega earthiness. This was matured in a bourbon hogshead for four years before being transferred to a 2nd fill oloroso sherry hogshead.
