Lustau Almacenistas Fino del Puerto, "1/143" NV	96 Decanter A rounded, powerful fino with a pungent nose of fresh-cut apples and a suggestion of toasted almonds on the long finish. One of three en rama Sherries that explore the differences between the three main towns of the ‘Sherry triangle’. I’ve suggested the wine from El Puerto de Santa María because it’s rare to see these wines outside Jerez – but I strongly recommend you buy all three and compare them!
