DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Bodegas Tradición is a Jerez house that only bottles very old sherries, and VORS on the label means the wine is certified at more than 30 years of average age. This Amontillado is made from 100% Palomino.
Amontillado starts life under a layer of yeast, like a Fino, and then keeps aging without it, which gives it a style somewhere between Fino and Oloroso. This one shows both in its perfume and body. It has spent many decades in a traditional solera of seasoned American oak barrels. Expect hazelnut, toffee, dried orange peel and spice, all completely dry, with a very long finish.
Serve it lightly chilled, around 55F, in a small white wine glass. A little goes a long way. It's superb with roasted almonds, aged Manchego, mushroom dishes, consommé or cured ham. A rare bottle for anyone curious about how good sherry can be.
Bottle size: 750ml
