Appearance:
Deepish amber fading to yellow at the rim, coppery tints.
Nose:
Old Oloroso predominantly, with touches of "bodega", oxidation, walnut, wood and a trace of pasas (raisins) from the PX used to sweeten the wine. Well balanced between dry Oloroso and sweet PX.
Palate:
Mellow with gentle texture, not over sweetened, medium bodied, the Oloroso provides most of the flavour, the good length and quality of the wine, while the PX softens it.
Comments:
An attractive after dinner wine, ideal with nuts, softer cheeses or caramelly desserts. Also sold as "Alameda Cream", which is what it is, but a good one.
