Solera 1847 Cream Sherry

Color: brilliant amber

Nose: intense, aromatic bouquet with notes of raisins, figs, and delicate oak

Palate: full-bodied and soft on the palate with juicy sweetness, fine hints of dried plums, nuts, and elegant solera oak; a beautiful aromatic richness and endless length on the finish.

All grapes are harvested separately by variety and fermented individually. The wines are then fortified to an alcohol content of approximately 17.5 to 18% vol. and fed into large 600l oak barrels in two separate solera systems for their initial maturation: one for dry Sherry Oloroso, one for Pedro Ximénez. In this way, both wines can develop their characteristic varietal aromas, complexity, and special potential. After this initial maturation period, both sherry types are carefully blended together and fed into González's old Solera 1847, where they harmoniously complete their aging over another five years. The Solera 1847 was founded by Manuel María González in 1847 to mark the birth of his first son.

A sherry that not everyone likes

Surprisingly fresh nose, spicy on the palate (juniper, prunes, meat stock, balsamic) with integrated acidity, long finish with a bitter note.
