As recommended by Master Sommelier Christopher Bates His “Top Picks”
“aged for 10 years side by side (with Valdespino Tio Dego) The only difference is that whereas Inocente ages under its yeast flor for the whole 10 years, in Tio Dego the flor is extinguished after about 5 years, letting the wine interact with the oxygen.”
A pungent yet delicate Fino with salted almond notes and lean ocean breezy aromas. This Palamino is subtly rounded, lending a smooth feel and voluminous character, finishing sea foam fresh.
