February Wine Pick: Emilio Hidalgo Fino Sherry


It's February again and that means I've got a fortified wine to warm you up in between the shovelings! And this year I'm going with a Fino Sherry!

Sherry just isn't for cooking. You should be drinking it more than you cook with it because it really is delicious when you buy a good one and not one of those sodium overdose cooking sherries. Sherry has a very specific oxidized and saline profile. Fino is a specific kind of Sherry that spends time in the barrel under a layer of yeast called the flor, which lends its unique character.  A little bit about the winery: Bodegas Emilio Hidalgo was founded in 1874 and is currently run by its fifth generation of Hidalgo's.

This is 100% Palamino. The color of the wine is a golden yellow. Caramel leads the charge of aromas, followed by dried apricots, prunes, brown sugar, and almonds. Fantastic nose. On the palate it's a lighter bodied Sherry, as it should be, with a nice salinity to its mouthfeel and bright acidity. There's flavors of apricots, almonds, Greek olives, and yeast. It feels and tastes so good on the finish that there's no rush to take another sip. Which is a good thing because it has a 15% ABV. Take your time and enjoy.

QUALITY VS PRICE RATING
Price: $16
Rating: 4.5/5 = Recommended / Highly Recommended (what does that mean?)

The bottle used was purchased by myself for the purpose of this review. To have your wine reviewed follow this link.

    I downloaded a crypto wallet app that appeared legitimate, complete with a sleek interface and positive user reviews. Trusting my instincts, I deposited a substantial amount of $180,000 into the wallet, convinced that I was making a wise investment. However, my optimism quickly turned to despair when I woke up one morning to find that the entire platform had vanished overnight, along with my hard-earned money. The scammers had executed their plan flawlessly, shutting down the app and leaving me with nothing but empty promises and a drained account. In a state of panic and fury, I scoured the internet for solutions, desperately seeking a way to recover my lost funds. It was during this frantic search that I stumbled upon Passcode Cyber Recovery , a company that specializes in tracking and recovering stolen cryptocurrency. Intrigued and hopeful, I reached out to their team, who moved swiftly to address my situation. The experts at Passcode Cyber Recovery identified the scammer’s accounts and were working diligently with legal authorities to freeze those assets. While I understood that no recovery is guaranteed, Passcode Cyber Recovery provided me with a fighting chance, something I had thought was impossible after the app had disappeared without a trace. Their professionalism and expertise instilled a sense of hope in me during a time of despair. This traumatic experience taught me two critical lessons that I wish I had learned before: first, never trust unverified wallet apps, and second, never deposit large sums of money without conducting thorough research. Scammers are adept at designing platforms that look legitimate, only to pull the rug out from under unsuspecting users when they least expect it. If you find yourself in a similar situation, having already been victimized by a fraudulent wallet or exchange, don’t lose hope. Passcode Cyber Recovery specializes in these exact scenarios where apps suddenly go offline, taking your money with them. Their expertise in cyber fraud reversal is unmatched, and they have a proven track record of helping individuals reclaim their stolen assets. If you’ve been scammed, I urge you to contact Passcode Cyber Recovery immediately. The faster you act, the better your chances of recovery. Don’t let these thieves win, fight back with the best in the business and reclaim what is rightfully yours. Your financial security is worth the effort. Thank you Passcode Cyber Recovery
