This is the special reserve range palo cortado from Romate in jerez, with an average age of over 15 years. 

It has that lovely chestnut colour that is typical of a palo cortado. It also has the smokey honey-ginger notes on the nose.

On the palate it is zingy, gingery, caramel but saline and spiced. Not as finely structured, long or broad as some but a very nice palo cortado.
