Bodegas Emilio Lustau,
Ready, but will keep,
Bodegas Emilio Lustau was established in 1896 and was initially a small family concern until the founder`s son-in-law placed it on a business footing. The firm is perhaps best known as pioneering the Almacenista system, whereby individual dry Sherries are produced from small private holdings. These are bottled under Lustau`s name but with the individual bodega's name on the label as well. Today they are amongst the most sought-out Sherries in the region.
Aged for 12 years in the bodegas of Jerez, this is rusty gold in colour. Full-bodied, it has great intensity on the nose due to the long ageing. This wine combines softness and great complexity, giving enormous length on the palate. Rich stews and red meats would be a very good food pairing for this wine. It is also an excellent digestif.

Bodegas Emilio Lustau,
Ready, but will keep,
Stockholder Don Jaun García Jarana runs this 100-year-old bodega as a hobby, his 300 butts including Finos, Amontillados and Olorosos. His main business is as proprietor of a company called Two Wheels, importing Japanese motorcycles. Despite the apparent lack of synergy, or maybe because of it, his Olorosos are widely acclaimed.
Dark in colour with aromas of dried fruits, this is a rich and concentrated wine. An Oloroso (the word means “fragrant” in Spanish) from the oldest solera, this would be equally at home with game or the cheese board. .

Our Dry Oloroso has a nose suggestive of something sweet, with its notes of walnuts and dried fruit, so the lack of sweetness on the palate is initially something of a shock. As the layers of flavour unfold in your mouth, this is clearly a very different wine from a more commercial, sweetened cream Sherry. In addition to the nuts and raisined-depth, there is a haunting toffee-sweetness on the palate of this dry wine. The finish persists for an age.
