Equipo Navazos La Bota 68 de Fino Machurnado Alto

75cl

La Bota de Fino 68 “Macharnudo Alto” was made in June 2016 from the same batch of casks that already gave us the seven previous editions of La Bota de Fino. This new release has an estimated average age between ten and eleven years and is selected from casks of the first and the second criaderas in the solera.

The nose shows very complex and intense aromas, and a remarkable roundness in the palate (the traditional buttery touch of old finos) as a result of the autolysis of dead “flor” yeasts resting on the bottom of the vessel. This is particularly true of the solera, where the flor is almost exhausted, while in the second criadera the yeast is still very lively and active, which provides the spiciness and pungency that are also notable features of this extraordinary wine. Of course, the first criadera has an intermediate profile between the solera and the second.
