Tasting Notes

Rich, complex, and full-bodied with notes of dried fruits, nuts (especially walnuts), leather, spices, and sometimes a hint of balsamic vinegar. It has a balanced, dry finish with a persistent and lingering aftertaste.

About the Winery

After decades of market domination by insipidly sweet, mediocre wines, the world's gaze is increasingly being drawn to Sherry's treasures. This is the tiny proportion of wines still patiently aged in its ancient soleras, with their bracing dryness, thrilling complexity and inspiring antiquity.

And no greater treasures are emerging than those of Valdespino, the producer most steeped in history and rooted in tradition.
