Description

`One of the oldest Sherries ever released, a single vintage Amontillado from the 1891 vintage housed in a beautiful glass decanter and handmade wooden presentation box. "Powerful, layered, pungent, nutty, spicy, and gloriously fresh, replete with rich extract and extraordinary length. The aftertaste went on for literally minutes." - Decanter Magazine.

About this wine

Barbadillo Versos Amontillado Bottle 100 1891 is a highly exclusive and aged sherry, part of the Versos collection from Bodegas Barbadillo. Bottled in 1891, this Amontillado sherry was a personal reserve specifically held in the cellars of the Barbadillo family. It was released in limited quantities to celebrate the poetry of Manuel Barbadillo, a member of the Barbadillo family. The wine showcases deep complexity and a rich tapestry of flavors, reflecting its extensive aging process. The Versos Amontillado 1891 displays a complex array of flavors, including dried fruit, nuts, hints of caramel, tobacco, and a distinct umami presence.
