Bodegas Baron Xixarito Amontillado
ABOUT THE WINE
Obtained from the complete fermentation of ‘Palomino’ grapes, our Amontillado is a unique wine, fruit of the fusion of two types of aging, biological and oxidative. It’s particular aging process begins, as in the case of ‘Manzanilla’ , with an initial phase called ‘velo de flor’; throughout the early years in the ‘criaderas’, the wine acquires sharp notes and accentuates its dry palate. From this point, the disappearance of the flower causes a second phase of oxidative aging that gradually darken the wine and will provide concentration and complexity.
