Bodegas Lustau, East India Solera Sherry, 50cl

Rich and complex. This sherry greets the palate with an opulent blend of dried fruits such as figs, raisins, and dates, intertwined with notes of toffee, caramel, and dark chocolate. Subtle hints of spice, nuts, and a touch of coffee add depth and intrigue. An exceptional choice for those who appreciate finely crafted, sweet sherry.

Produced in Jerez, Andalucia, using a meticulous and traditional process, this sherry is created using a blend of Palomino and Pedro Ximénez grapes. These are fermented and then aged separately in a solera system, which involves a series of barrels where younger wines blend with older ones, ensuring consistency and complexity over time. 

This sherry complements aged cheeses, especially blue cheese and Manchego, as it enhances their creamy textures and complex flavours. It also pairs beautifully with desserts, such as dark chocolate, caramel flan, and pecan pie, thanks to its rich, sweet profile. For a savoury contrast, try it with foie gras or spicy Asian dishes, where its sweetness can balance out the heat. 

Ingredients: 80% Palomino, 20% Pedro Ximenez. 20% vol. Contains SULPHITES.
