GOLD MEDAL: Decanter World Wine Awards 94 POINTS: Jamie Goode, Wineanorak.com 92 POINTS: Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The 1986 Oloroso de Añada is one of the few, rare, single-harvest Oloroso sherries available. In the 28 years of oxidative aging in oak butts, 55% of the wine evaporated. The resulting wine is mahogany-colored with a bright amber border and a balsamic nose of incense, old furniture, tobacco and wax. The palate is medium to full-bodied and gentle with slight sweetness." – Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
