Product Notes

Barbadillo Criadera Selection Amontillado En Rama is an exquisite Spanish wine hailing from Jerez. This sumptuous, high-quality Amontillado showcases complex flavours, blending subtle hints of almonds, prunes, and smoky oak. An alluring hue from golden amber to mahoganies intrigues the eyes whilst an aroma mix of candied fruit, vanilla and old oak keeps your senses enraptured. Painstakingly aged using traditional solera and criadera systems, each sip engulfs the palate with a structured, long-lasting finish. Ideal for seasoned wine connoisseurs, perfect when paired with robust cuisine. Lovers of unique wines will relish the unfiltered, en rama style of this unforgettable Amontillado.

Tasting Notes

This Amontillado, selected from the criaderas in Mil Pesetas, should be served lightly chilled in white wine glasses. A savoury wine with both biological and oxidative ageing, a mature amontillado is one of the most versatile wines in existence. This Amontillado harmonises with nearly all types of food and is always perfect as an aperitif.

Located in the heart of Southern Spain, the Barbadillo winery exudes a rich history and a deep-seated passion for crafting premium wines. Best known for its Spanish sherries, this winery truly encompasses the spirit of Andalusia.

Barbadillo winery has been family-owned since its establishment in 1821, a testament to its sustainability and commitment to tradition. The family’s dedication imbues every step of the wine-making process, from the careful selection of grapes to the meticulous ageing process in their expansive underground cellars. These subterranean treasures house over 35,000 casks of age-honoured sherries and carry tales from centuries past.

Barbadillo's vineyards span across 500 hectares of Andalusia’s Marco de Jerez region. The location is idyllic, enjoying the cooling breezes of the Atlantic. The stunning albariza soil provides the perfect growing conditions for the Palomino, the grape varietal used to produce Barbadillo's high-quality sherries.

Their portfolio includes the crystal-clear manzanilla, well-aged amontillado and rich oloroso. They are also famed for their pioneering white vinous wine - Castillo de San Diego – a favourite among aficionados since its debut in 1975.

However, Barbadillo winery is not merely a haven for wine enthusiasts. It also offers visitors a look into the world of wine-making through enlightening tours, tastings and events.
