Hi Forumites! I have been exchanging a few PM's with Otto concerning my interest in sherry, as he had provided me with a recommendation for one of his favorites recently. I purchased a few bottles and opened one last night to evaluate on my own before serving it to our guests. The following is my TN which Otto strongly encouraged me to post on the boards
It is my first ever TN, not at all "Parkerite" according to O, and I present it for your evaluation. 
Gonzales-Byass VORS Apostoles Palo Cortado Sherry
The appearance of this sherry in my crystal held before candlelight dazzled me with the depth and allure of an enormous, precious topaz; a shimmering pool of Jurassic amber. What an intense and captivating nose! It wouldn't release me! I felt as though all my senses were bathed in warm honey and caramels and the scent continued to cling to me like a rare and expensive perfume. I may even try wearing it as one! Owing to the 20% alcohol, this elegant sherry has impressive legs; long, slim, sensual and languorious. My first taste was so intense that it was difficult to put into words initially. The Spanish word for semi-sweet is 'abrocado' and it describes the balance of sweetness of this sherry served at room temperature perfectly. It beckoned me to taste again and again, yet it compelled me to be still while it had its way with my tastebuds. I decided that a mouthful of this Palo Cortado is like a first serious kiss, embued with a passion that communicates understanding, intention and control. As for length...I stopped counting at 100 seconds and knew it would last much longer than I. It didn't disappoint!
If I unintentionally contributed at all, I do hope your inamorata was left feeling as sated by the end of the evening as GB's Palo Cortado left me!
