Emilio Hidalgo, El Tresillo 1874 Amontillado Viejo NV Scotland-Spirits Juicy and supple with succulentAn extraordinarily complex, savoury, dry Amontillado from Emilio Hidlalgo, which has aged for around 8 years under Flor before 4 more years of oxidative ageing. It tastes like a rich, full oxidised Fino despite the winning notes of dried fruit, old oak and toasted hazelnuts. Powerful and long with a lovely umami driven, almost saline finish, this is one to savour with aged Manchego or a Porcini risotto.
