Aged for 15 years in Jerez de la Frontera, since the foundation of its Solera by Mr. Emilio Lustau in 1921 to commemorate the visit to Jerez of Eugenia de Montijo, the last Empress of France. A rich and mellow wine, with immense flavors of smoky wood, prunes and bitter chocolate.

Tasting Notes

Dark gold in color with khaki hints. Penetrating dry and nutty aromas with great concentration. A rich and mellow wine, with immense flavors of smoky wood, of fruit, of prunes and bitter chocolate. Complex, generous on the palate, smooth and warming, leaving a clean, lightly acid lingering aftertaste.

"This dry Oloroso has a swoon-worthy nose of warm maple frosting and pecan pie. It's fresh on the palate, balancing weight and restraint with aplomb. Salty, briny, nutty flavors of green olive turn toastier and darker on its almond-inflected finish. This is top-notch dry Sherry to enjoy now and forever. Drink through 2060."
