Bodegas Luis Pérez Marco de Jerez 'La Escribana' Palomino de Pasto 2022
A Vino de Pasto from the laminated Albarizas Barajuelas of Pago Macharnudo. The 2022 La Escribano Vino di Pasto 1 year in old fino casks, a tiny bit of ullage and a thin layer of flor.

Saline with textural pleasure a plenty. Green leafy herb at the edge. A playful divine wine. 🔥Hot Tip: Drink
