Alvear Asuncion Oloroso Sherry 500ml

93 POINTS: Robert Parker
91 POINTS: Guia Penin

Smooth, dry and complex fortified wine from the oldest winery in Montilla-Moriles, just outside the borders of Spain's sherry triangle. Bodega Alvear owns 300 hectares of vines and has earned a reputation for making many of Montilla's best wines, including this oloroso, which has is a blend that has been aged, on average for 10 years. 

The style is on the cusp of being sweet and dry, thanks to intense caramelisation and richness of flavour. Deep, raisin intense aromas and dry to very dry flavour. Silky, soft on the palate with a dry, long, graceful finish associated with lengthy cask ageing.

ABV: 19%
