| Making Techniques | The finest and deepest butts were selected for this production. Their content refreshed with true (and unfortified) manzanilla pasada (this is a natural amontillado), in order to create an amontillado solera that was slightly over 100-butt strong and located at third and fourth in same row. Throughout June 2012 we have selected a dozen of these butts which shine for their superior freshness. |

| Jancis Robinson 19/20 | 'Average age of the wines is 20 years. Was a manzanilla for half its life. Bottled September 2012. Burnt Gold colour. Lovely salty burnt caramel nose and fine nutty aroma. Vivacity and freshness with a strong burnt orange flavour even though it is so dry. Incredibly long. Rich in flavour even though it has elegance and finesse. Utterly tasty and delicious.' |
