The Lustau Almacenista Amontillado Wine is a generous wine from D.O. Jerez, made 100% from Palomino grapes. Its aging is done in two stages: biological and oxidative, achieving an alcohol content exceeding 20% after nearly 20 years of aging. This wine embodies the tradition and mastery of Jerez artisans, with complex nuances that captivate the senses.
The Lustau Almacenista Amontillado Wine comes from the renowned Luis Caballero Group and holds the distinction of D.O. Jerez (Spain). This wine is made exclusively from 100% Palomino grapes and is part of a traditional winemaking process that involves a double aging. First, it undergoes a biological aging under a veil of flor yeast, before moving on to an oxidative aging phase once the veil is lost. This meticulous aging process, lasting nearly two decades, results in a wine with an alcohol content exceeding 20% vol.
Lustau, known for its dedication to selecting exceptional artisanal wines, has bottled this Amontillado precisely as it comes from its original soleras. Its solera, composed of 38 butts, has an average age of 19 years and reflects the experience and dedication of Jerez producers over the years.
In tasting terms, the Lustau Almacenista Amontillado offers a unique sensory experience. In appearance, it shows an amber color with coppery reflections. On the nose, aromas such as hazelnut praline, candied orange peel, and subtle hints of varnish and cabinetry come to the fore, all with a background of smoked wood. On the palate, it reveals itself as dry, sharp, and with a refreshing acidity, making it a perfect accompaniment to various dishes and special moments.
