Oloroso Victoria Regina VORS 50 cl

Aged from the very beginning in an oxidative way, the NV Oloroso Victoria Regina is a VORS from an old solera whose 17% initial alcohol is concentrated to 20% by the time it's bottled. The noble wood is upfront, and has some unusual notes of vanilla, a touch of varnish and hazelnuts, dried apricots quite showy, in a commercial way. The palate is quite approachable and round, ending quite dry and serious, somehow in contrast with the nose. Today I prefer palate to nose.1,000 bottles per year.- Luis Gutiérrez.
