Uncle Pepe’s unfiltered, unclarified version of his Fino, bottled in spring at the time of maximum yeast (“flor”) activity, intending a fresh and delicate experience. Clear deep gold. Aromas of yeast and dried pear and the umami of salty salami. Light-bodied, tasting of ripe apple and a certain grapey-ness that could deceive you into tasting sweetness, nicely balanced with a bit of almond bitterness. The “En Rama” version, in my opinion, is different, but not necessarily better.
