I have a general sense that these finos from Tradicion are getting steadily better (although at a majestic tasting at Reserva y Cata last year it became clear that the story is a little more nuanced). I also think they benefit from a little bit of time in the bottle.

Whatever the case, this one – which I should reveal was bought for me at the bar of Territorio Era – really hit the spot. A yeasty, dry unroasted-nut fino with nice elegant shape, some bitter almond notes and a fresh finish.

Really excellent stuff.
