If a few of the autumn sacas I have tried are a guide it has been a hard summer for the flor down in el Marco.

This autumn saca of the great Tradicion fino seems to me from memory to be towards the oxidated, roasted, end of the register. Not necessarily a bad thing: gives it plenty of body with a ripe, rich feel to the flavours and the zing of salinity gives it a nice spicey finish and balance.

A serious but very drinkable fino from the top drawer.
