Bodegas Poniente Amontillado Sherry VORS
Sherry from Jerez, Spain
Wine Advocate – 93 Points
There first bottling of the NV Amontillado VORS, marked as “Saca 1/2018,” comes from a solera and six criaderas that are over 40 years of average age, and the sixth criadera was topped up with biological wine that was over ten years of age. The color is quite dark and with a green touch around the edge, and the nose seems dominated by oxidative notes of noble woods and some rusty nails with an unusual leafy/balsamic twist. The palate is very salty, dry and saline, with echoes of low tide and seaweed, leaving a dry sensation in the finish.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with grilled artichokes, tuna tataki, Croquetas de Jamon, seared chanterelle mushrooms, grilled asparagus and Kafta (Lebanese beef skewers).
