Osborne Solera BC Oloroso Rare Sherry 500ml
Osborne Solera BC Oloroso Rare Sherry 500ml
The original "ABC" solera was founded in 1864, one of the oldest in Bodegas Osborne, three soleras and 200 butts. The entirety of solera "A" was sent to the Imperial Court in Saint Petersburg in 1888 for the Russian tsars, the sole clients for this wine.
"The NV Rare Sherry Solera India Oloroso blends Palomino and Pedro Ximenez grapes in a solera created in 1922, averaging 25 years of age. It wears a dark mahogany robe with green and amber edges. The nose shows good balance between bitter and sweet notes, nuts, spices (curry perhaps?), noble woods, molasses and a touch of candied fruits and brandy. The palate has hints of a very old wine, complex and concentrated, with a touch of volatility that lifts it up, quite common in such old wines, with good balance between acidity and sweetness. It is a unique bottle. A high end cream?" 93 points Wine Advocate
