Lively but standard aromas of maple, honey and nuts are a touch fiery. Matching the bouquet, it fills the mouth, with a silky touch. Salty, nutty, intensely dry flavors finish with hard-driving acidity that creates never-ending length.

Palo Cortado is an exciting form of sherry that starts its life as a fino but suddenly turns itself into an Oloroso. The name means 'cut stick' and comes from the habit of the sherry winemakers of marking the barrels that declare themselves as this style with a stroke through the line that usually defines it as Fino.

Matusalem is a blend of 75% Palomino and 25% Pedro Ximenez aged for over 30 years. A dark Oloroso sherry with fruity overtones of cinnamon, dried-fruits and candied peel, and a rich, sweet finish.
-
This is an intensely sweet, smooth and persistent wine. With a bouquet of raisins and dry figs, caramel, mocca, nuts and spices.
-
Soft, subtle and a bit honeyed on the bouquet with red bush tea and medicinal notes. Warm, spicy, mature palate with an attractively tangy character. Very long and concentrated finish.
-
Mahogany coloured. Aromas and flavours of caramel, toasted almonds and dried apricots. Very expressive and complex. Good acidity, and a very long persistent finish.
-
Pale sandalwood/caramel in hue, with a fresh, brisk, redolently woody aroma. Though appearing to teeter on the verge of volatility by virtue of being so dry and so woody, the blue cheese notes (cachel blue / dolcelatte / cabrales / stilton) lift it into an entirely different level.
