With 8-10 years of aging before release and added punch and precision, one can once again wonder why good quality sherry does not cost more than it does.<\/p>\n
The Palomino Fino grapes are sourced exclusively from their own fields and both vinification and the important storage takes place in Gonzalez Byass’ endless buildings in Jer\u00e9z.<\/p>\n
Instead, we will present the wine and the type of wine. Oloroso seco is a fortified, dry and highly aromatic type of sherry; in fact, oloroso means ‘fragrant’ while seco (dry) distinguishes it from varieties with residual sweetness. Oloroso has never had a dense flor layer to protect it from the oxygen content of the air, and therefore a slow oxidation takes place, which is also a characteristic of the type. The long oxidative aging gives a nut-scented wine with great intensity. Due to the low acidity, you can sometimes get the impression of sweetness in the wine, despite the fact that it is dry.<\/p>\n
The color is light mahogany with shiny reflections and intense aromas of hazelnuts, walnuts, caramelized almonds, sun-ripened lemon, orange peel, dried figs, iodine, toasted oak, salt and vanilla flow out of the glass with great power and fullness. The aftertaste is almost endless.<\/p>\n
It is not uncomplicated to serve oloroso seco with food, but when it is successful, the match can be brilliant. Try, among other things, manchego, well-aged, air-dried ham, oloroso-steamed mussels, venison p\u00e2t\u00e9, confit, onion soup or a beef consomm\u00e9 or a clear soup with meat and flour dumplings.<\/p>\n
Enjoy this wine served a few degrees below room temperature (try for yourself and find your sweet spot!) from a slim white wine glass.<\/p>\n
