Williams & Humbert Dos Cortados Palo Cortado VOS 50 cl.
Description
L’expression « dos cortados » ou « tres cortados » fait référence aux marques faites à la craie sur les botas lorsque l'une d'entre elles ne va pas dans la bonne direction pour le vin en question. Le Palo Cortado est un vin singulier entre l’Amontillado et l’Oloroso. Dos Cortados provient du Pago Balbaína, classé Jerez Superior, saisissant et intense au nez, ainsi qu’avec des touches complexes de fruits secs et de noisette. Très élégant et persistant en bouche, et extrêmement expressif.

L'avis des experts
The NV Dos Cortados Palo Cortado VOS mentions on the label "Solera Especial" and that it aged for 20 years, but the average age is possibly higher; and they say that in the future it will be labeled as a VORS, over 30 years of age. It has a dark amber color with some green tints, not common at that age, and a nose with clear biological reminiscences, along with saltpeter, seaweed and rusty nails with just a generous and warm touch of peach and spirit. It has 21.5% alcohol with a low pH and high acidity through concentration, but it has a gentler palate than expected. The nose is definitely closer to an Amontillado than an Oloroso. It comes in a half-liter bottle, and they filled around 1,000 of them in 2023, but there's no mention of the bottling date or saca on the labels.
Me dejo un poco a medias, la verdad
nariz excepcional: cáscara de naranja, fruta escarchada, turrón de Cádiz, notas salinas. En boca, menor nivel
