Production process: This is a blended wine, carefully made from a combination of wines that have been subject
to biological and oxidative ageing. After the harvest, the fermented Palomino wine is agein or 18% for oxidative
ageing; this depends upon the body of the wine. Biological ageing takes place under a film of flor yeast during a
phase known as sobretablas. Oxidative ageing is a result of the action of oxygen inside old American oak sherry
cask and the traditional, yet dynamic system of criaderas and soleras. Oxidative ageing is the predominat process
in the production of this wine and consequently defines its character.
