Tasting note: This was a huge, thick, raisiny-flavoured sherry with a chocolate/caramel-like taste, exceptional unctuosity, and a huge, oily thick finish. It is unquestionably a sherry to be sipped at the end of a meal. One bottle will easily serve 20+ people. The colour is an opaque black/brown. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #95 Oct 1994
