Aromas of saddle leather, salted caramel and toffee unfold alongside subtle oxidative notes. The palate is concentrated and luscious, with incisive, balanced acidity derived from volatile compounds that lift and define the wine's richness. Layers of roasted nuts, dried orange peel and a touch of bitter almonds on the mid-palate, leading to a persistent finish. This will hold, but can be enjoyed now. (JGL)

Barbadillo is somehow a specialist in Palo Cortado, and they now offer a younger, gentler and more straightforward NV Palo Cortado Criadera Selection from the Tío Río solera. It's an elegant oxidative wine, with an average age of 14 years, with a peachy nose, gentle and tender, but with a more saline and sharper palate with a bitter twist in the finish. It has an Oloroso nose and an Amontillado palate. (LG)

Notes

The Barbadillo Palo Cortado En Rama Criadera selection begins aging under flor but ages mostly oxidatively for an average of 10 years in old American-oak botas. The wine is sourced from criaderas in the Sacristía bodega, and is bottled en rama (directly from cask with minimal filtration.
