Diez Merito, BERTOLA Amontillado 12yr, Jerez-Xerez-Sherry NV	92 Wine Spectator Fresh and open in feel, with notes of date, salted caramel, green tea, hazelnut and singed orange peel. Reveals a flattering echo of sweetness in the background but remains firmly on the dry side. Drink now. 1,525 cases made, 100 cases imported. 91 Wine Enthusiast A tawny color and mild but smooth aromas of roasted nuts and yeasty flor lead to a fresh and zingy palate with bright acidity and a lean-to-medium body. Tart citrus flavors are backed by nutty toffee notes, while this finishes long and steady, with length propelled by popping acidity. Drink through 2030. 16.5/20 Jancis Robinson Salty and nutty with dry, chewy fruit, raisined and savoury with great concentration and a good amount of persistence. Dry and vibrant.
