Tio Pepe Extra Dry Fino Sherry (Kosher)

I may really love Israeli wines, but I am equally passionate about wines from around the world. This past week I was really excited about enjoying some Sherry Fino with sushi! However, what happened next was what I remembered from the last time I tasted this wine – it tasted highly oxidized and really not enjoyable. Sure there were hints of almonds, caramel, and brioche – but the wine was dominated by the ever so obvious veil of oxidation. Actually, forget veil – why not say it for what it was – over oxidized and hard to enjoy.
