Lustau VORS Palo Cortado 30 years old

Lustau VORS Palo Cortado 30 years old

This Palo Cortado comes from a selection of the best casks in the very limited solera of Don Rafael. The Council of the Denomination of Origin has endorsed it with the category VORS (Very Old Rare Sherry), more than 30 years of ageing.

Coppery topaz in colour. Vibrant nutty pecan aromas. In the mouth it has a slightly bitter touch, reminiscent of dark chocolate, with great length.

Matured cheeses or oriental spicy food. Perfect digestif.

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.
