This is not only a stunning Palo Cortado but also the Bota Punta, meaning that it comes from a single barrel, topped up with wine from other butts in the solera rather than from the criaderas. It’s, therefore, utterly unique and rarer than rare. Today these butts (the ‘Bota NO’ and the Bota Punta of Gaspar Floridos GF-30 solera used for the No.’s 47 and 48) are stored at the Sacristía of Pedro Romero, very close to their original location. Here, Navazos had the opportunity to revisit them and sample them exhaustively to select their favourites for these elite editions of “La Bota”: it is again a truly extraordinary wine for its unlikely balance between sheer authenticity, concentration, and finesse; genuinely amazing, with so much character and personality. And of course, it belongs in the higher echelon of traditional Andalusian wines—which is to say, amongst the greatest wines in the world.

Reviews

“Another old, rare and concentrated Sherry, the NV La Bota de Palo Cortado Bota Punta 48 is a single-cask, very old (around 70 years of age) Palo Cortado originated in the vineyards of Gaspar Florido in Sanlúcar de Barrameda. It aged for a long time allowing it to gain concentration over time, most probably with a few years under flor in its youth. It’s sharp and pungent, really intense in the palate. It has notes of cigar ash, hints of malted cereals, peat, and smoke, with a super-intense palate with persistent flavors and an extremely salty, really concentrated ending. Simply superb!”
