Structure
THE STORY
Fino ages under a layer of yeast called flor, which protects it from air and gives it its signature almond-and-sea-spray character.
Nose
Almond, green apple, chamomile and sea salt.
Palate
Bone-dry and tangy; yeasty, nutty and savoury.
Finish
Crisp and saline.
At the table
Jamón, olives, Marcona almonds, fried fish and tapas.
How it is made
Aged in a solera system under flor in old American oak butts, then served very cold.
Terroir & region
Albariza chalk soils of the Sherry Triangle, close to the Atlantic.
