Oloroso Manuel Aragón, is an exceptional wine that comes from the founding solera of the Aragón family, dedicated to producing quality wines since the nineteenth century in Chiclana de la Frontera (Cádiz). From this foundational solera we bottle by hand and directly from the butt, a limited series of bottles.
Proceeding from the complete fermentation of Palomino grape musts, the Olorosos are "vocational" wines; the special structure they show from the beginning advises tasters to classify them for oxidative aging. The initial heading at 17% vol. of alcohol prevents the development of the flor veil, so the wine ages exposed at all times to the slow action of oxygen through the traditional system of criaderas and solera.
