Barbadillo Palo Cortado Obispo Gascon: A Sip of History

Ruth Banks — Great with cheese

7/10

Bought this for a dinner party and served it with a big cheese board at the end. The fig and raisin notes went perfectly with some aged manchego. 21.5% ABV so go easy — one glass and you know about it! Would buy again for the right occasion.

Zara Al-Hassan — Why have I been ignoring sherry??

8/10

I always thought sherry was what your nan drank at Christmas but this completely changed my mind. It's rich and silky with this amazing finish that just goes on and on. The hazelnut and butterscotch combo is gorgeous. Genuinely one of the most interesting wines I've had this year.

Noah Williams — Interesting but not really my thing

6/10

Got this as part of a sherry tasting we did with friends. It's well made and I can see why people rate it, but the dried fruit and coffee flavours are a bit much for me. I prefer something lighter. My mate who's more into fortified wines thought it was brilliant though.
