The Crianza Oxidativa is another of Mateo's experimental cuvees, and one he continues to work on. This is bottled from a single hogshead of Tamaguelos-grown Doña Blanca. The wine in barrel has been allowed to grow a thin layer of flor and has been bottled after 12 months without filtration. The resulting wine is certainly left field; a theoretical hybrid of Mateo's Gorvia Blanco and a La Bota Fino. While we found it a fabulously engaging and appetising wine it won't be everyone's thing; super-oxidative and complex. If you love sherry you should love this. The Luis Gutiérrez note below gives you a good idea of what to expect.
