The 2015 selection of
the fantastic Palma range from González Byass is available from today. This is the 5th
annual release, all bottled en rama, and consists of 4 Palma wines of increasing
age from 6 years old (Una Palma), 8 years old (Dos Palmas), 10 years old and virtually
flor free (Tres Palmas) to over 40 (Cuatro Palmas), selected from an original
selection of 30 butts in the Tio Pepe soleras. Palma is Fino but of exceptional
finesse, and in this range one can see the development of the wine as it ages
into Amontillado. Every year a leading wine journalist is chosen to help
Antonio Flores with the selection, and this year it was Michael Schachner, Wine
Enthusiast Magazine’s Hispanic wine editor based in New York. Only 6,000
bottles of this stunning and rare Sherry will be released so you had better bet your skates on!
