Tasting Notes - N.V. Seppelt Palomino Fino DP116 Amontillado

Although this wine is a non-vintage blend it is fact labelled as a 1998 bottling, thus fair to assume the real age of this wine is somewhat older than 10 years. Colour depicts some age with a darkening gold. Nose is very varietal with a dry piecing tang. Palate not quite as hard as expected although still the drying acid still has plenty of burn to, well, 'burn'. A lick of sweetness comes through as well, perhaps as result of the softening impact from the aging. No rush to drink.
