Fernando de Castilla Sherry Oloroso Antique
The Andalusian city of Jerez de la Frontera can look back on a wine-growing tradition spanning over 3000 years. This makes it one of the oldest wine-growing cities in the world and is also the birthplace of sherry.
The name of this speciality is derived from the anglicized form of the city's name. The traditional Bodega Rey Fernando de Castilla is located in the heart of the old town of Jerez. Sherry and brandy of the highest quality have been produced here for over 150 years.
The base wine for the Oloroso sherry is fortified with brandy to approx. 18% after vinification. The high alcohol content means that the yeasts do not have a suitable breeding ground and no flor layer can form on the sherry. The direct contact with air means that the Oloroso matures more quickly and intensively, and the alcohol content also increases over the years through slow evaporation.
Only the best sherries are bottled for the house's Antique collection, so this Oloroso is also something very special. The nose shows clear notes of maturity, which can be perceived on the palate as nut and orange aromas. The aftertaste is dry and very long. Ideal for fine chocolate!
