Supplementary information Palo Cortado 2002 Production: First-press must was selected in the 2002 harvest, spontaneously fermented, then fortified to 18% alcohol and left to age through physico-chemical aging, via losses in American oak barrels. Specifically, from the set of 24 casks, a special bottling was made from a selection of barrels, highlighting its exceptional finesse and showing all the fullness of the Albariza. Vintage characteristics: Climate: year with normal rainfall (584 L/m2) Characteristics: Extremely fine wine, silky, pure expression of elegance and minerality. Vintage System Production: Unlike traditional sherry wines, aged through the “Solera and Criaderas” system, these vintage wines age statically. For their production, musts from old vines in the Pagos de Añina and/or Carrascal are selected, which are fortified to 15º for biological aging, or to 18º for oxidative aging. These wines are monitored during their aging, in which no intervention is made until the moment of selection for bottling. In contrast to the homogeneity provided by the Criaderas and Soleras System, where wines of different ages are methodically blended, each of these wines is unique and special. These wines reflect the harvest of the year and its particular climatic conditions, as well as the peculiar evolution of each one during its static aging.
