(4/2019) "Light, brassy amber color. Displays kaleidoscopic aromas of apricot nectar, toffee, orange zest, brown butter, toasted nuts and dried fig, plus a hint of salty minerality. Thick, weighty and sweet, with a spine of juicy acidity giving support to deeply concentrated, palate-coating pit fruit liqueur, fig paste, toffeed apple and orange marmalade flavors. Lingers with superb persistence on the expansive finish, which emphatically echoes the apricot and toffee notes. (made from vines that were planted in 1885; 45 kilograms of fruit used per half bottle; 512 g/l residual sugar and 5% alcohol) Drinking Window: 2019 - 2047"

The numbers on this "home project" from famed importer Jorge Ordonez are staggering. 353g/L RS, 9g/L TA, only 4.53% ABV. These hyper-sweet half-bottles each filled with the soul of 60 pounds of grapes is wine-geek heaven. 40% off the Wine Advocate Reference Price.

(3/1/2018) "Made all from dried Moscatel grapes, the 2014 No 3 Vinas Viejas was aged 8 months sur lie in larger 600-liter French oak barrels. Medium gold colored with powerful notes of orange blossom, honey apricot, creme caramel, and jasmine, this incredible wine takes 60 pounds of grapes to make a single bottle and had to be declassified as it only hit 5% alcohol. Despite a motor oil like consistency, it stays balanced and graceful, and keeps you coming back to the glass, which can be rare for a wine of this size. It's a singular, awesome dessert wine I wish I could pour for every reader."

(6/28/2019) "The NV Oloroso Asuncion was produced with Pedro Ximenez grapes (like all in Montilla), and as the grape achieves higher ripeness than the Palomino, the wines have a higher natural alcohol and need less fortification to reach the 19% alcohol that it is bottled with. It's aged in a solera system believed to be over 25 years of age, according to the documentation I received, but this used to be bottled at around 12 years old. This is still a little sweet, as it contains around 15 grams of sugar. It has a mellow character, quite approachable, with signs of medium age, not that old, aromatic and gentle in the palate, with the sugar making an appearance in the finish, balancing the faint bitterness."

Juan C. Grant La Garrocha Fina Sherry NV

Our Score
(8/2020) A lovely dry sherry that is savory and nutty. We all know someone like that, don't we? Refreshingly light on the palate. Serve as an aperitif, with some good friends - a great way to start the evening. Serve cold.
