Antonio Barbadillo Oloroso Del Tio Rio Sherry

The fullest of the trio tasted and the least dry, thus almost creating a perception of sweetness in relative terms, but sweet it is not. Pale olive green colour with some pale tawny edges. The nose is reminiscent of old varnish, leather, walnuts with some roast hazelnut and Brazil nut overtones. The palate has remarkable depth - again perceivably sweeter than the first pair, but still quite dry. Nutty almond flavours, hints of flor and clean dry spirit with a slightly varnishy end flavour. Exceptionally long dry rancio, roast almond and hazelnut aftertaste.
