The Palo Cortado VORS "Obispo Gascón" Limited Release 2023 from Bodegas Barbadillo is an outstanding representation of wines from Sanlúcar. Aged in the oldest barrels of the bodega, it exhibits a unique style that blends the aromatic elegance of biological aging with the depth from oxidative aging. This limited edition is bottled only when it meets the excellence required by the Regulatory Council. The 2023 release is characterized by exceptional concentration and balance, contributed by its lengthy aging and the freshness of Sanlúcar's Atlantic climate. On the nose, it exudes aromas of toasted almond, walnut, and orange peel, with notes of wood, tobacco, and caramel. On the palate, it is silky and balanced, with elegant bitterness and a long finish. Ideal for enjoying on its own or pairing with dishes like cod, smoked foods, or foie gras.
