Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker and Jancis Robinson

The NV Apostoles VORS is a blend of Palomino made into Palo Cortado and 10% Pedro Ximenez, assembled after their first five years of aging after which they completed their 30 years in barrel together. It shows a mahogany color and a predominant note of raisins among the hazelnuts, candied fruit and sweet vanilla. The off-dry palate has intense flavors of dates, dry figs and raisins, with great persistence and length. The blending makes it very approachable and good to combine with cured cheeses. A unique, off-dry Palo Cortado.

Deep orangey tawny with a pale greenish rim. Smells sweet and much more demanding than Leonor. Actually, the quite notable sweetness may have been used to disguise the slightly painful reduced treacle sensation that is produced by very old sherry. I’m not enjoying this as much as the purity of Leonor – though you perhaps have to worship the venerability of the base wine. The overall impression is sweet. I wonder when you would drink this?
