Tasting note

Valdespino have produced aperitif wines since the late 19th century. Their original recipes, known as ‘Tonics for the Sick’, were a blend of sherries macerated with botanicals, fruit and bitter root extracts. In the late 1990s, the Estévez family discovered casks containing these aperitifs and continued to produce small batches for their private collection.

The team have since recovered old recipes and revived the original Art Deco labels. They are the only house to produce a vermouth based on Very Old Oloroso Wines from the bodega’s founding soleras, which provide excellent richness and complexity. The Vermouth is a blend of Very Old Oloroso from the Don Gonzalo solera (aged for an average of 20 years) and Moscatel, which contributes a refreshing citrus lift.

Bright mahogany colour with coppery tones. The nose displays intense spicy aromas with hints of hazelnut, orange peel and wild herbs. There is a wonderful bittersweet tension on the palate, coupled with silky texture and vivid concentration. Serve in a tumbler glass, with ice and a slice of grapefruit or orange.

Producer

Bodegas Valdespino

Bodega Valdespino traces its origins to 1264, when Don Alfonso Valdespino received land in Jerez after aiding King Alfonso X. Though commercial activity began in 1430, the company was officially registered in 1875. Valdespino became Sherry purveyors to the Spanish Royal House in 1883 and the Swedish in 1932. They pioneered the use of "Sacristia" and produce Fino Inocente, the only Sherry from a single vineyard, fermented in oak and aged through ten Criaderas.

Region

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.
