Gonzalez Byass Viña Dulce , 50cl

This bottling from the folks at Gonzalez Byass presents a piece of Jerez winemaking history! It uses Palomino Fino grapes which were vinified at the Viña Canariera wineries back in the '80s. This was the last time such a process was used by them, after which, the technique all but died out in the region and the grape variety was kept more or less exclusively for sherry production. This wine has been ageing since 1986 and only two butt casks were selected for this bottling, so it really is a rarity and a bit of a lost relic! Sweet figs and prunes, rich dark molasses, bright wood and alluring spice. VERY RARE SWEET PALOMINO.
