Palo Cortado Peninsula - Fortified Wine

Palo Cortado Peninsula - Fortified Wine, from Lustau, is a generous wine from the Jerez region, made from the Palomino Fino grape variety. This Palo Cortado is distinguished by its balance between the finesse and aromatic delicacy typical of an Amontillado and the broader body and structure revealed on the palate, approaching the profile of an Oloroso. The result is a rich, complex and very expressive wine, bearing the signature of a major reference house in Jerez wines.

In the glass, it presents a brilliant amber color. The nose is intense and captivating, with notes of toast, hazelnut, vanilla, coffee, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it is dry, very concentrated and elegant, with a long and persistent finish, where hints of dark chocolate return. Aging in American oak casks in Jerez de la Frontera, following the traditional solera and criadera system, contributes to the depth and complexity of the whole.

It should be served between 13 and 14 ºC. It is an excellent choice as an aperitif and pairs very well with consommé, foie gras and spicy dishes. A fortified wine of great character, designed for lovers of dry, intense and full-bodied styles.
