Tasting notes
Emilio Lustau Almacenista Manzanilla Pasada de Sanlúcar 1/80 NV (500ml)
RS: 1.0 g/l | TA: 4.29 g/l | PH: 3.41| 17% alc
‘Smells of just-polished mahogany. Very interesting! Massive impact but a real tightrope walk. Pungent but not aggressive. Long and pretty concentrated but obviously a Manzanilla.’ – Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20
Emilio Lustau Almacenista Fino del Puerto Gonzalez Obrégon 1/143 NV(500ml)
RS: 1.0 g/l | TA: 4.5 g/l | PH: 3.0| 15% alc
‘The NV Almacenista Jose Luis Gonzalez Obregon Oloroso del Puerto produced from Palomino grapes and aged in Puerto de Santa Maria by the sea, has a chestnut color with a green-amber edge, clean sweet notes of roasted nuts, cake and oranges, a medium- to full-bodied palate with a smoky character and great length.’ – Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, 91/100
Emilio Lustau Almacenista Amontillado de Sanlúcar Jurado 1/21 NV(500ml)
RS: 6.0 g/l | TA: 5.55 g/l | PH: 3.1| 17.5% alc
‘Dusty toffee and dried stone-fruit aromas are pure and inviting. This is ultra crisp and fresh, with ripping acidity. Flavors of toffee, salted peanuts and sharp-leaning dry white fruits finish racy and with precision. This is a classic complex amontillado purchased from the cellar of Manuel Cuevas Jurado.’ – Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, 92/100
Emilio Lustau Almacenista Amontillado del Puerto Obrégon 1/10 NV (500ml)
RS: 6.0 g/l | TA: 6.00 g/l | PH: 3.1| 18.5% alc
‘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.’ – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100
Emilio Lustau Almacenista Palo Cortado de Jerez Pino y Cía 1/22 NV(500ml)
RS: 8 g/l | TA: 6.6 g/l | PH: 3.21 | 21% alc
‘Suave and sophisticated with multi-faceted maple, roasted nuts, cinnamon spice and crushed oranges unfolding to the deeply creamy and intoxicating palate. Very long and intriguing.’ – Decanter World Wine Awards, 95/100 (Gold)
