Rancho Tepua Reserva Del Vinatero Palmilla Blanco Sotol (750ml)
Review Date: 11/2023
The pricing here is crazy, but so too is the quality. This sotol is super pure and clean, crystalline even. The nose is beautiful and feels like polished chrome. It is gently smoky, saline, herbaceous, and is reminiscent of a cedar humidor. It also offers hints of carrots caramelized in brown sugar. The palate is slick, maybe just a touch oily. It has a wonderful texture and more sweetness than you might expect from the more herbal and salty nose. At 30 bucks, this is an easy no brainer if you're a fan of interesting Mexican spirits. Feel free to do anything from thoughtful sipping to casual Margaritas and Palomas with this one.

Notes
*One time pricing available* Made by Roberto Contreras this incredible artisanal Mexican spirit is made from 100% wild Sonoran Dasylirion wheeleri (Palmilla, as it's known locally). The plants are harvested on the Rancho Tepua in Aconchi, Sonora and roasted over mesquite in an underground over for 48 hours. The estate has a natural spring which provides the water for production as well. Ferment is via wild yeast in stainless steel vats for 8-12 days. The resulting elixir is double distilled on copper alembic stills. The highly terroir driven spirit showcases the rugged Sierra Madre mountain ranges and offers a complex mix of high minerality, smokines, and earth tones.
