Tio Pepe Fino En Rama Sherry from Jerez — bone dry and light with an elegant bitterness that produces a long finish with almond notes, produced from Palomino Fino fermented and biologically aged for a minimum of two years under a layer of flor yeast in the traditional criaderas and soleras system.
Tasting Notes
Pale golden in colour, bone dry, and light on the palate with an elegant bitterness that produces a long, clean finish with characteristic almond notes. The flor yeast that develops on the surface of the wine during its 2+ years of biological ageing is responsible for the fino's distinctive dry, saline, slightly nutty character — one of the wine world's most singular and food-friendly styles.
