Gonzalez Byass Jerez Leonor 12 Anos Palo Cortado

González Byass Leonor 12 Años Palo Cortado is a distinctive dry sherry from Jerez, Spain, aged for 12 years in American oak casks using the traditional solera system. It presents a light mahogany hue with golden tones and a slight orange rim. The nose is intense and complex, featuring notes of hazelnuts, bitter orange, and mature oak, reminiscent of an Amontillado. On the palate, it is powerful and intense with toasted notes, yet smooth and silky, akin to an Oloroso. This unique combination offers a harmonious balance between the finesse of Amontillado and the richness of Oloroso, making it ideal for pairing with mature cheeses, venison, or as a contemplative sipper.
