More information about Leonor Palo Cortado - González Byass

With the González Byass Leonor Palo Cortado comes a first-class sherry in the wine glass. It offers a wonderfully dense, golden yellow color. Swiveling the wine glass, this fortified wine reveals a high viscosity, which shows in church windows at the edge of the glass. This single varietal Spanish wine flatters the glass with wonderfully complex notes of lemons, grapefruits, pomelo and lemongrass. These are joined by hints of cigar box, brittle and oak.

The González Byass Leonor Palo Cortado impresses with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with 6 grams of residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine in this price range, this Spaniard naturally enraptures with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Excellent taste does not necessarily need sugar. On the palate, the texture of this powerful fortified wine is wonderfully velvety and dense. Due to the balanced fruit acidity, the Leonor Palo Cortado flatters the palate with a velvety feel, without lacking freshness. In the finish, this wine from the wine-growing region of Andalusia finally inspires with considerable length. Again, hints of pink grapefruit and grapefruit appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by clay and limestone are added.
