Akilia Tosca Cerrada Palomino Fino en rama 2016

Mario Rovira is an energetic winemaker from Bierzo, making natural minimal intervention wines. He also has a passion for Palomino Fino (he actually also grows it in Bierzo), this one however, is from Cadiz.

100 % palomino fino, unfortified and aged for 7 months, three of them under flor.

Grown on Albariza soil of the Pago de Balbeino this is a richly flavoured Andalusian wine. Golden in colour this demonstrates classic saline and mineral characters, chalky and limestone driven. Assertive on the palate with great acidity and fine palomino fruit characters.

If you love dry sherry then this is a simply delicious option with lower alcohol and more fruit weight.
