Palo Cortado
A mind-blowing sherry is the non-vintage Equipo Navazos La Bota de Palo Cortado Nº 86. It is a very unique palo cortado, from the best and most accurate producer in the Montilla area. The excellence in the vineyard (both because of the singular terroir of the Altos de Moriles, and for the quality of its viticulture) is the key to show the richness that the grape pedro ximénez can show.
The elegance of La Bota de Palo Cortado 86 “Bota NO” shows as an undisputed Palo Cortado: an oxidative wine with a lightness and a delicacy that would not suit a typical Oloroso from Montilla. It started life as an Oloroso, but given its exceptionally fine character it was reconsidered to be a Palo Cortado. And even within the Palo Cortado, this is extremely elegant.
The exceptionality of this wine comes from finesse, together with uniqueness and scarcity, as only a single barrel has been selected from the small solera of this wine. This is a real Palo Cortado, a fine oxidative wine.
In October 2018, 1,100 bottles were filled. Rated with a 95/100 Parker score.

It’s hard to exactly pin Palo Cortado down, that’s why most have stopped trying. Surprising complexities balanced with delicate curiosities. Bitter orange and citric caramel make a truly unique companion for equally elusive courses or a light cigar to mirror one’s soul in and contemplate adventure.
Goes well with nuts, cured cheeses, stews and gelatinous meats like bull’s tail or cheeks
