Jalifa Amontillado VORS - Williams & Humbert

We recently rediscovered these aged sherries from Williams & Humbert and were highly impressed. Williams & Humbert is famed for it's Dry Sack sherry, but the 20 year and 30 year sherries they make are absolutely enthralling and stand out in a crowd. "Pretty pale copper color. Classic aromas of salty buttery caramelized nuts and earth follow through on a round lively entry to a dryish medium-to-full body with subtle cherry, dried meat, and peppery spice notes. Finishes with a long, brown sugar, nut, and sea air tinged fade. A quintessential example of Amontillado Sherry." 96 points (superlative) by Tasting.com at the World Wine Championships in Chicago.
