Barbadillo Palo Cortado San Roberto 1/1Single Cask

Jancis Robinson"‘Glowing amber and gold – surprisingly light in colour for such an old wine. Every time I lift the glass to my nose, it changes. One moment, the aroma of an old sawmill, dust motes floating silently in the first shafts of rose-gold dawn light; the next, a drift of cut cigar, toasted coconut; then dried apricot, the ashy mould of cave-aged alpine-cheese rind. The palate is whip-sharp, so taut and tingling with life that I felt the shock of it up my spine.’ She concludes: ‘I want to taste this in a cathedral, on my knees. The whisper of Shelly, breathing ‘Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory—’." - 19,5/20 point
