Description

Oloroso is a “vocational” wine; the special structure that it shows from the beginning, recommends its classification for oxidative aging.

The initial heading at 17 degrees prevents the development of the flor veil, so the wine ages exposed to the slow action of oxygen. The slow loss of water through the walls of the butt promotes a continuous process of concentration, which makes the wine gain in structure, smoothness and complexity, while reaching a higher alcohol content.
