Orto Vi Ranci Clàssic

The amber and nutty NV Vi Ranci Clàssic has a nose that reminds me of a young Oloroso, with some peachy aromas and a gentle mouthfeel. This is a very young rancio that they started in 2008 with a majority of Garnacha Blanca and 5% Macabeo, and it's aged in an oxidative way in a solera system that now contains wine from ten different vintages. This is now 15.86% alcohol and bone dry, and age is making it concentrated and slightly volatile but with that young twist. This is a first bottling of 460 bottles.
