TASTING NOTE

Alfonso is Bodegas Tío Pepe / González Byass’s oloroso expression within its current or recently verified portfolio. The current documentation records 8 years. The profile remains tied to the exact current bottling and release. The current documentation records it as made from 100% Palomino Fino, aged through oxidative ageing, with an age statement of 8 years, at 18% alcohol and in 75cl. No caveat beyond current price, stock and bottle-level verification.

Mahogany, with walnut, leather, spice and seasoned wood; dry, broad and persistent. Its breadth and warmth are framed by a dry, savoury finish.
