TASTING NOTE

Obispo Gascón is Bodegas Barbadillo’s palo cortado expression within its current or recently verified portfolio. The profile is kept edition-specific where the public documentation is incomplete. The current documentation records it as made from 100% Palomino Fino, aged through biological origin followed by oxidative ageing, at 21% alcohol and in 37.5cl. No caveat beyond current price, stock and bottle-level verification.

Amber-mahogany, combining citrus peel and hazelnut lift with polished wood, breadth and a long dry finish. Aromatic finesse and Oloroso-like breadth define the style.
