Palo Cortado forener Amontilladoens fantastiske scent med Olorossoens rige eftersmag. Intense and toner with chocolate and coffee toner.

Dark amber in color, with maple, walnut and other sweet-meets-nutty aromas. It’s a bit tangy, but being as zesty as it is propelled maple, white chocolate and apricot flavors. This one has depth and a very long finish, which makes it a regal but still approachable palo cortado. Overall it’s similar to an amontillado, but with more pulsing, piercing acidity.
Om Lustau
Lustau he enestående sherry. Emilio Lustau has the title of “Best Spanish Bodega”. Mange apriserne he gået til husets egne vine, men en del he faktisk også gået til de såkaldte almacenista-sherry’er, som Emilio Lustau he meget kendt for. Små, individual vinavlere Sælger deres, often meget nuancerige, vin til Lustau. Before all the others sherry house blander almacenistaernes vin i husets egne, he Emilio Lustau det eneste hus, som lader almacenista-vinene aftappe hver for sig. Uanset hvilken Lustau-sherry, man vælger som første bekendtskab, he man ikke i et øjeblik i tvivl om, hvorfor Emilio Lustau he områdets ledestjerne og trendsætter i resten af verden!
The foundation of Lustau was founded in 1896, when José Ruiz-Berdejo began his peaceful life in the family, the family home, Nuestra Señora de la Esperanza. And so, the dog blev til just, the vinene started at blive follows til større sherryproducenter – en activitet, one knew i området som at være “almacenista”. In 1931, Josés datte, María Ruiz-Berdejo Alberti, and little winemakers took part in Jerez de la Frontera and the families were destroyed. I 1940’erne flyttede Marias mand, Emilio Lustau Ortega, vineriet til den gamle bydel af byen og begyndte i gamle, mauriske bygninger at udvide forretningen, stadig som almacenista. In 1945 I stopped Lustau dog den beskæhaftelse and started at sælge sine egne sherrymærker. Navnet Lustau blev synonymt med kvalitet og i 1990 gik Lustau sammen med et andet prominent virksomhedsnavn i spiritusbranchen, Luis Caballero. The sikrede yderligere stability and economical muscles.
I think it rains Lustau som en målestok for sherry in verdensklasse. Medaljer og trofæer har der været mange af, bl.a. “Best Spanish Winery” in 2011 and “Best Sherry Producer” in 2014 and 2016 at the International Wine & Spirit Competition.
