It's finally back, after an absence from the market place for about two years. The story goes that a winemaker left a vat valve open over a weekend and emptied the reserve of the fino into the drains! The present whereabouts of this genius are not known, but given a similar problem at Pipers Brook, earlier this year, he may be working in Tasmania!Made from the Classic sherry varietals, Pedro Ximinez and Palomino. This wine displays pale straw colour and looks very fresh indeed. Great Finos should be freshly bottled! Superb lifted flor yeast nose with some nutty background notes. The palate has delightful intensity and concentration of flavour. The nutty flor yeast flavour has just a hint of saltiness which is carried through to a bone dry finish and very long yeasty aftertaste. A superb aperitif!
