"What's the difference between this and regular PX? It's the dose of oloroso Sherry, added to young PX, which lessens the immense sweetness, and adds the finesse lacking in the high-street cream Sherries. Plus, it's an average 20 years old (hence the VOS designation). The bodega itself is a bucket-list visit with an exceptional art collection, and an equally precious archive of the Sherry business from the original bodega founded in 1650."

"There are not that many quality Creams, as it's a category that has little fame and tends to go to the lower segments of the market. However, the 1/23 bottling of the NV Cream VOS is quite impressive and among the best I've tried in the category. The Oloroso and the PX feel very integrated, like they were blended a long time ago and then aged together in the soleras y criaderas system of dynamic blending, but in reality, it's 70% of their old Oloroso with 30% of their young PX. The blend has an average age of 20 years. It has notes of peach, brandy, nuts and raisins, quite harmonious. It has 18.5% alcohol and 128 grams of sugar, dense and quite sweet. 1,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2023."
