BARBADILLO OLOROSO FULL DRY SHERRY

Olorosos are Sherries that have matured without the presence of flor, resulting in a rich and full-bodied wine. As the name suggests, it is highly aromatic, with notes of toffee. This particular Oloroso has been subtly sweetened to provide a smooth and satisfying finish on the palate.

Once the fermentation of the Palomino must is complete, the most robust wines are selected and fortified with a wine-based distilled spirit to increase the alcohol content to 18%. This fortified wine, known as "sobretablas," is then set aside for ageing in traditional Jerez *botas*, typically with a capacity of 500 litres. The ageing, or *crianza*, occurs through the oxidation of the wine in the barrel, accompanied by periodic racking within each tier of the *criadera*. This traditional system is defined by the careful movement of wine between the *soleras* and *criaderas* within each cellar.
