Description
This sherry-style dry fino showcases the fine craftsmanship of Bodegas Toro Albalá, renowned for its long history in producing high-quality aged wines.
Tasting Notes:
Straw-yellow colour with golden and greenish highlights. The nose is intense with aromas of almond, hazelnut, and bread, complemented by fresh hints of hay, olives, and subtle licorice from American oak. The palate is dry, with a silky texture, lingering bitterness, and a saline finish.
Serving & Food Pairing
Serve chilled, ideally between 8-10°C. This fino pairs excellently with seafood like oysters, Iberian ham, and manchego cheese. Also pairs well with seafood, such as oysters, prawns, and grilled fish, and can complement sushi and other umami-rich dishes.

Reviews
*** 90 Points Robert Parker ***
Names have changed and all labels are new; they are all named Poley and have a reference to the number of average years the wines have spent in the solera, like the NV Poley Fino del Lagar en Rama Solera 10 Años. It's an unfortified Fino with 14.5% alcohol and 10 years of average age. It's yeasty, nutty, pungent and moderately bitter, quite easy to drink. All Poley wines now come in 500-milliliter bottles. There's no clear indication of saca or bottling date. 14,000 bottles were produced. Luis Gutierrez Sept 2022
