Appearance
Quite dark,
deep, slightly red – toned brown fading through amber to yellow at the rim,
legs.
Nose
A nice mix
of savoury salty Sanlúcar notes and pasas, quite rich and generous with hints
of walnut from the Oloroso. Fruity and savoury at the same time, but if
anything more fruity with an attractive raisin pulp texture.
Palate
Rich and
full – flavoured yet reasonably light. Sweet and soft but has a gentle tang to
balance. Not a wine of any great age- a commercial Cream, but very fruity and pleasant
with a good texture and long finish. Would be nice on ice with a slice of
orange or as it is with pastries.
Comments
This wine
is 4-5 years old and a blend of Oloroso with a little Amontillado and PX with a
little moscatel. It has different labels for different markets, and is also known as Zuleta Cream.
