Pale golden straw, light legs.
Nose
Lots of yeasty flor, bread dough, brine, almond, very clean well made Fino, very fresh and very dry with good depth and slightest savoury hints. Brilliant with olives.
Palate
Fresh, crisp and clean with those yeast notes and that slight savoury hint from autolysis. Really refreshing wine, good and dry with good length.
Comments
Aged for 3 years according to the company website, but 5 years according to the bodega, which is more likely judging by the quality, through 5 criaderas and then the solera. It's a very good Jerez Fino. Bertola was established in 1919, taken over by Rumasa then sold to Grupo Paternina, and was bought in 2016 by the Espinosa family, along with Diez Merito.
Price
About 10 euros in Spain Not widely available in the UK but imported by Peter Watts Wines of Coggeshall, Essex.
