2022 Macharnudo San Cayetano Vino de Pasto
De La Riva Macharnudo San Cayetano 2020 (Vino di Pasto; 100% Palomino; 13.5% alcohol). White peach, apricot skin and a gentle, delicate, light florality. A little saffron and peach stone, almond and walnut shell. Searing acidity but such richness and a beautifully diaphanous texture. Hyper saline. Wondrous and wonderfully waxy in its mouthfeel. Very different. Shockingly fresh on the long vibrant finish. Very long with laser-like linearity. Excellent. Highly original and very exciting. This is quite a discovery.
96/100+ Colin Hay; The Drinks Business
First time on the Place for this brilliant white from the Jerez region of Spain that uses a hint of the flor ageing technique but is bone dry. One of the most exciting wines on the Place this September, just arrestingly gorgeous, bursts through the palate, powerful twist of grilled salted almonds, with soaring adidity alongside juiced lime and lemon, crushed oyster shell, stretched out and thought-provoking. Tiny production from a 4ha site of 6,000 bottles. The latest wine from an increasingly productive partnership between Ramiro Ibáñez and Willy Perez aimed at reviving the historic Sherry brand Manuel Antonio De la Riva. Get on board. Vino di Pasto, by the way, refers to unfortified wines - definitely something to remember and look out for when getting to grips with what is happening in Xeres today.
