TASTING NOTE

Palo Cortado Península is Bodegas Lustau’s palo cortado expression within its current or recently verified portfolio. The current documentation records approx. 12 years. 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, with an age statement of Approx. 12 years, at 19% alcohol and in 75cl. No caveat beyond current 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.
