Decanter Magazine, in its current (December) edition has given
high praise to some Sherries. The article was written by Sarah Jane Evans MW,
who knows a lot about Sherry, having written her MW dissertation on the
Almacenistas. I can confirm that; I last met her at Vinoble giving a talk on
Moscatel. She praises the following:
La Bota de Manzanilla No 32, Equipo Navazos
Manzanilla Pasada Cuevas Jurado, Lustau Almacenista
Manzanilla Pasada Pastrana, Hidalgo la Gitana
Puerto Fino, Emilio Lustau
Fino la Ina, Emilio Lustau
Fino Antique, Fernando de Castilla
Fino Perdido, Sanchez Romate
Amontillado La Bota No 31, Equipo Navazos
Amontillado Antique, Fernando de Castilla
Amontillado Vina AB, Gonzalez Byass
Oloroso La Bota No 28 Bota Punta, Equipo Navazos
Palo Cortado Viejisimo 1/5, Cayetano del Pino
Palo Cortado Vides, Lustau Almacenista
Palo Cortado Wellington VORS, Hidalgo la Gitana
Moscatel Emilin, Emilio Lustau
PX Antique, Fernando de Castilla
PX Noe VORS, Gonzalez Byass
I have tasted most of these, and will post my notes on those
not already posted as soon as I can. They are all quite excellent, and you
should stock up with them for Christmas!
