Emilio Lustau Almacenista Amontillado del Puerto Obrégon 1/10 NV Bottle size: 500ml
Spain, Jerez
R460
‘This has lots of range, with ginger, date, toasted almond, blood orange, singed sandalwood and green tea notes all allied to finely beaded acidity, letting everything drape beautifully on the finish. Alluring on its own, but this really begs for some Cabrales. Drink now.’ – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100
‘Gentle on the nose, rounded with a touch of orange, hazelnut and caramel notes. Richness and salinity on the palate.’ – Decanter World Wine Awards, 91/100 (Silver)
‘Tawny gold colour. Complex and elegant, this classic Amontillado is pungent and aromatic, with fine notes of oak. Nutty on the palate with a hint of sweetness and a lingering, dry finish.’ – Winemaker

| Producer information | Emilio Lustau was created in 1896 by José Ruiz-Berdejo who was an almacenista in Jerez. Today, the historic producer is considered the global standard-bearer for top quality Sherry. Lustau was named Best Spanish Producer at the International Wine & Spirits Competition in London, while the oenologist Manuel Lozano, who sadly passed away in 2016, was awarded the Best Fortified Winemaker title seven years in a row. Lustau’s philosophy has remained the same since its inception in 1896: the pursuit of the highest quality in order to offer the widest and finest range of Sherry. |
