Fernando de Castilla Antique Amontillado Jerez-Xeres-Sherry NV 50cl

Description

A very serious sherry with the classic myriad of aromas and flavours you would typically associate with aged Amontillado. There is a real tang to both nose and palate with orange peel, eucalyptus, varnished wood, fennel amongst many other flavours. There is a huge dry finish with just the right amount of acidity. Wonderful.

Fernando de Castilla

Founded in the 19th century, this esteemed house combines traditional methods with meticulous craftsmanship to create wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Jerez region. Fernando de Castilla focuses on producing high-quality sherries, ranging from Fino and Amontillado to rich Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez, known for their depth, complexity, and finesse.

Andalucia

Andalucía, located in southern Spain, is a historically significant wine region known for its diverse and distinctive wines. The area benefits from a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters, ideal for viticulture.
It is most famous for its fortified wines, particularly Sherry (Jerez), produced in the Jerez de la Frontera area. Sherry is known for its unique styles, including Fino, Amontillado, and Oloroso, which offer a range of flavours from dry and crisp to rich and nutty. It also produces notable sweet wines, such as those from the Pedro Ximénez grape.
Historically, Andalucía’s winemaking tradition dates back to ancient times, with a strong influence from the Phoenicians, Romans, and Moors.
