Description

This is Peter Sissek's (Pingus) project in the Jerez region, which intends to rehaul the style by creating single vineyard bottlings and the selection of old vines in only the best soils of the 'Marco de Jerez'.

“The NV Fino Viña Corrales Pago Balbaína was bottled in 2021, clearly shown on the label and on the cork. It has a round, lush and buttery texture, a full-bodied palate and very pungent flavors. What surprised me from this bottling is the freshness and elegance that makes the wine feel lighter and easier to drink. This feels one step above the first bottling I tasted last year. It has incredible aromatics that are super complex, with notes of diesel, potpourri, wet chalk, esparto grass and yeasts. This is simply superb and even difficult because it’s sooooo easy to drink. In 2020, they did two bottlings, or sacas, in the spring and autumn, which is quite usual because the idea is to do only one bottling per year. In 2021, they bottled a little bit later, trying to soften the character of the “beticus” yeasts. They filled some 7,500 bottles in May 2021. This was bottled completely “en rama,” unfiltered and unfined. Bodegas San Francisco Javier is the joint venture in Jerez from Peter "Pingus" Sisseck and Carlos "Hacienda Monasterio" del Río. I tasted the 2021 bottling of their Fino, which was even better, fresher and more elegant than the already surprising 2020.”-96+WA, 2021-2028

'The first thing to say about this phenomenal sherry is that it is not simply an aperitif or simple quaffer. This is a serious wine and should really take its place at the table as a great white would do.
The immediate impression is of crisp apples followed by fragrances of nuts and linseed oil. Oyster shell, sea breeze notes. More richly flavored than most other Finos. A slight hessian, citrus, and pear character as well.
This is balanced, layered, intense and complex. A silky texture and amazing length. Indeed, such balance and such length. A pristine, pure, beautiful wine. Toward the finish, there is a creamy egg-custard note and hints of bitter almonds. Love this.
Absolutely no reason why this could not be matched with a richer seafood or chicken dish.' 96.
