Tio Pepe Extra Dry Fino Sherry
  |
|
BN#125809 |
Tio Pepe's distinctive aroma and lightly nutty taste with a hint of almonds and an ABV of 15%, compliments savoury foods such as seafood, smoked salmon and tapas - yet powerful enough to cope with robust flavours such as chorizo sausage, anchovies and spicy foods.
Wine Spectator
Bracing and ultradry, here's a fino that begs for tapas. Nut and apple flavors are accented by iodine, and the finish leaves a mouthwatering impression. Drink now.
Score: 88.

Wine Enthusiast
Round and nutty, with mild floral and honey hints up front. The formula for Tio Pepe calls for a salty, crisp flavor profile with just enough complexity to thrust it into the upper echelon of finos. Slight mushroom and iodine notes appear on the finish.
Score: 88.
