Lustau VORS Oloroso 30 years old

Lustau VORS Oloroso 30 years old

This Oloroso is the result of a selection of the best cask out of 10 which are aged in a Solera founded in the 1920s. The Council of the Denomination of Origin has endorsed this wine with the category VORS (Very Old Rare Sherry), more than 30 years of ageing.

Brilliant tones of old gold, with bronze hues. This wine has aromas of nougat, apricots and plums. Intense and warming, mouth filling, reminiscent of marron glacé on the palate and old brandy due to its great concentration.

Game and matured cheeses. Perfect digestif after a meal.

Emilio Lustau, one of Spain's greatest Sherry bodegas, is named after Don Emilio Lustau Ortega, son-in-law of founder Don José Ruiz-Berdejo y Veyan. Don José, of French descent, founded the family firm in 1896 at his home in Nuestra Señora de la Esperanza, but in the 1940s Don Emilio moved the firm to the Santiago district of Jerez. The firm saw significant expansion, and joined the ranks of the top Sherry producers under Don Emilio's name. The family home was never abandoned, though, and in the 1970s extensive cellars were constructed there. Emilio Lustau is now a leader in Sherry production, certainly when judged on quality.
