Los Arcos is a beautiful amontillado that offers something to both fans of dry aged sherry, and fans of tawny port. ...

Lustau’s is not merely affordable arch-classic but the nose contends it’s also simply beautiful Amontadillo. Los...

The amontillado is an aged fino - hence its orange color - and having lost its veil, its flor. The wine seems all the...

Such an incredibly complex bottle of wine! Roasted nuts, caramel, iodine, and a hint of orange peel on the nose. Medium bodied, lovely silky smooth texture, and a well-balanced finish with the lovely acidity intermingling with the sweetness. This wine begs being paired with olives and serrano ham. Tasted November 2012

A fantastic amontillado. Med brown in colour. Full nose and palate with plenty of rancio but also some delicate dried fruit that really ups the complexity. Dry without being astringent. A wine to sip slowly and contemplate life. Excellent value.

Great Value. Aromas of caramel coated apple, toasted almond, lemon, raisin, and green olive. Brine and a hint of clove add to these on the palate. Hint of alcohol heat and a long finish.

Great value in this Amontillado Sherry. A lovely caramel colour and a complex nose that is essentially nutty but with notes of buttery caramel, creme brulee, marmalade, coffee and fig. The palate is viscous, salty with excellent length. Essentially dry but with a vague molasses-like kiss of sweetness. A touch hot on the finish but not overly so. Feb. 2016.

Medium in intensiry on the nose, this is a great dry Sherry for those who want a little less bracing notes than a Fino.

Toasted hazelnut, orange zest, brioche, butterscotch, tobacco and a hint of leather.

Dry with caramel and walnut on the palate, unsweetened orange marmalade, old wood notes linger through the medium+ finish.

Amazing value.
