Romerito Palo Cortado
Region : Jerez, Spain
Grape : Palomino
Palo Cortado’s are a very rare type of sherry that are initially aged under flor to become a fino or amontillado, but inexplicably loses its veil of flor and begins aging oxidatively as an oloroso. The result is a wine with some of the richness of oloroso and some of the crispness of amontillado. Only about 1–2% of the grapes pressed for sherry naturally develop into palo cortado.
This wine has been aged in a solera system for around 18 years. A pale mahogany in colour with notes of walnuts, orange zest and dried fruits with a slight salty tang on the finish which lifts the palate. Very long and complex.
