This exquisite sherry made with Palomino Fina is over 100 years and incredibly refined. Antonio Barbadillo Ambrossy exchanged ten casks of Manzanilla for each cask of this aged wine, resulting in a rich and nutty sherry. Expect notes of hazelnuts, oak, dried fruits and spices throughout the palate. An ideal aperitif with assorted tapas.

There is a new saca in a new bottle format of the otherworldly NV Reliquia Amontillado, now bottled in half bottles, with a different handmade label every year (and even the back labels are personalized with the bottle number and the name of the distributors and importers, as the wines are assigned by allocation to them). The wines are very similar, stable and sustainable as long as they keep from the temptation to bottle more; they are taken in minute quantities from the barrels to maintain the extremely old average age. This has infinite concentration. Only 80 half bottles are filled each October and hit the market around Christmas. The price is for a 375-milliliter bottle.

Drink any timeCaramelised walnuts and burnt caramel at first but there’s a lovely underlying salty olive tang. Bone dry, very fresh and refreshing and at the same time deadly serious. Electrifying, long and very very fine. (JH)
