The light filtering is to remove any large particles but certainly not intended to remove the flor otherwise we would have had to resort to very fine micron filtering. A prolonged natural clarification in tank (ie. waiting a week for the deposit of flor to settle) and then racking off the cleaner wine is enough to produce a full-flavoured, delicious fino.

The wine does still have an appetising flor content despite the above. It gives the wine a slight cloudiness and a short shelf life. It should be enjoyed within 3 months but will last a bit longer if stored carefully.

The Wine Society is the main recipient of this product but small amounts are available at Lea & Sandeman, Harvey Nichols, Fortnum & Mason and Cambridge Wine Merchants.

Justin,

This is fantastic! Love it! I had heard the end portion of that monologue so many times and never realized it was but a slice of something far more juicier!!

See you in Jerez!

Great review of the wines!!
I loved the 18 Fino. I have to say, I have never tasted a fino like that one.
As you said this is how the finos were in the past, and I think this is how all the finos should be.

You’re right – wine sales dropped almost everywhere except the US. Wines sales (volumn) actually increased, the top end of the dollar spectrum wines flattened significantly and there are currently a number of vineyards dumping excess grapes and vintners dumping stock of bottled wines all over.

I’m taking advantage of it.
