583. Sanchez Romate, La Sacristía de Romate Oloroso Sherry VORS, NV (2011)
Out of place, this entry, having flipped with Botaina. But either way, a superb VORS Oloroso, with a classy bottle design to match (albeit …
580. Sanchez Romate, Miguel Fontádez Florido Single Butt 1/1 Oloroso Sherry, NV (2011)
This Oloroso is best distinguished by its acidity and freshness, rather than mature cheese / rancio notes. A pity, given the mature Cheddar I …
579. Rey Fernando de Castilla, Antique Amontillado Sherry, NV (2011)
A notable bottle-deposit – is this unfiltered? Either way, a pretty good Amontillado. A little more ‘mainstream’ perhaps than Bota No. 23, and probably …
578. Equipo Navazos, La Bota de Pedro Ximénez No. 25 Sherry, NV (2011)
A balanced mix of the ‘raisin’ and ‘chocolate’ styles of Pedro Ximenez. And very, very good. A deep, deep, red-brown, with a narrow, amber-caramel …
577. Equipo Navazos, La Bota de Amontillado No. 23 Sherry, NV (2011)

575. Equipo Navazos, La Bota de Fino No. 24 Montilla, NV (2011)
From a second batch of Equipo Navazos wines, courtesy of Lay & Wheeler. Technically a Montilla-Moriles DO rather than a Sherry, but nevertheless a …
574. Osborne, Solera P∆P Palo Cortado Rare Sherry, NV (2002)
[Signed by Rocío Osborne, 2018: For Tim, thank you for a great dinner and for being a Sherry lover! Let’s spread the word out!! …
573. Lustau, Botaina Amontillado Sherry, NV (2011)
So, if En Rama is Tio Pepe’s special bottling, then this is La Ina’s. And I think this is the better of the two …
572. Rey Fernando de Castilla, Antique Oloroso Sherry, NV (2011)
From John Lewis Food Hall. A random purchase, this – riding my recent Sherry wave a little longer. And an interesting one because it …
570. Lustau, Palo Cortado Sherry Almacenista Vides, NV (2011)
Continuing a theme of old, rarer, quality Sherries – particularly Palo Cortado – I picked this up from Lustau’s Almacenista series. Drunk side-by-side with …
