Lustau Almacenista Amontillado del Puerto G. Obregon special

Description

This Amontillado from El Puerto de Santa Maria is aged in a very small solera of just 10 barrels. Golden in colour, this elegant and classic amontillado is sharp and aromatic, with oaky overtones. Nutty and complex on the palate, has a long, dry finish.

Dried orange peel, toasted almond, green tea and powdered ginger notes race through, as this stays bone-dry despite an echo of toffee running throughout. Drink now. 180 cases made.

The non-vintage Amontillado del Puerto, Almacenista Gonzalez Obregon is medium/dark amber, just off-dry, with the flavor of English toffee.
