I have just begun enjoying sherry, I have had a couple Palo Cortados, a couple of Amontillado (from Montilla-Moriles, and Jerez) and previously one Manzanilla.
This wine:

is labeled (white portion, bottom left) as Manzanilla (the firm is from Sanlucar), but includes 'Cortado' in its name. Indeed, this wine is much darker in color and flavor than either previous Amontillados or Manzanilla I have tried. However, my experience is just these few bottles. Is there such thing as a 'Palo Cortado' from Sanlucar (& thus a 'Manzanilla Cortado')? I love these wines but prefer to understand what I am tasting.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
