Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The NV Oloroso Cuco, produced from Palomino grapes from Gibalbin and Santa Lucia vineyards and aged oxidatively for 18 years in Sanlucar de Barrameda in topped up barrels, has a deep amber color, a nose of dried apricots, sweet cherries, is aromatic and expressive, it somehow brings to mind the nose of a Palo Cortado. The palate is warm, medium- to full-bodied, round and wide, unusually saline for an Oloroso. Very drinkable. It represents very good value and a good introduction to (elegant) Oloroso. Drink 2013-2015.

Description
Barbadillo Cuco Oloroso VORS is a wine that has been carefully crafted and aged in soleras for more than 30 years, following the traditional Jerez method. This wine, from the oldest criaderas of Bodegas Barbadillo, is considered a true oenological jewel. The grape variety used is Palomino Fina, grown in albariza soils, which contributes to its uniqueness and quality.
Winemaking
The ageing process of Barbadillo Cuco Oloroso VORS takes place in American oak barrels, where the wine undergoes an oxidative ageing process that gives it complexity and depth. Before obtaining the Vinum Optimun Rare Signatum (V.O.R.S.) qualification, it undergoes a rigorous analysis and control by a committee of experts, which ensures its exceptional quality and longevity.
Taste
On the palate, Barbadillo Cuco Oloroso VORS stands out for its full body and balance, with a long, lingering finish. Its dry character is complemented by hints of walnut, spices, caramel and cocoa, adding complexity to its aromatic profile. In addition, its saline notes, unusual for an oloroso, make it even more interesting and special.
