Frequently asked
What is Palo Cortado?
Palo Cortado is Spain's rarest sherry style — starting as fino/amontillado then developing without flor into a wine with the elegance of Amontillado and the richness of Oloroso. Extremely limited production, highly sought by sherry connoisseurs.
How does it compare with Glenfiddich 21 Gran Reserva?
The 21 has a rum cask finish (tropical, exotic). The 22 has a Palo Cortado sherry finish (nutty, refined, savoury). Both are excellent; choose based on flavour preference.
