- Description
- Hidalgo's La Gitana Oloroso Faraoń VORS spent 30 years maturing at Bodegas Hidalgo near Cadiz, developing complex oxidative character. The nose reveals walnuts, grilled citrus and black pepper, while the palate shows surprising freshness with dried fruit, olives and lemony acidity that cuts through the wine's weight. Pair this with game meats and mature cheeses, or enjoy it as a contemplative aperitif.
