Wine of the Duque.

The harvest that takes place in the "Marco de Jerez", is of utmost importance for the development of the Vino Generoso Amontillado del Duque, lthe collection of the grapes is done by hand to reach the winery in optimal condition to reach the winery, the grapes are carefully pressed, without crushing the stems, seeds and skin. The must obtained from this first pressing is known as "mosto yema" being the most delicate and elegant.

The aging of the wine is done through the system of criaderas and soleras in American oak barrels of 550 liters. The wine remains approximately 30 years in solera. During this period, the wine ages under a layer of yeast called "flor" that disappears, allowing an oxidative aging to the origin of its amber color.
