Amontillado Escuadrilla - Fortified Wine

Amontillado Escuadrilla - Fortified Wine, by Lustau, is a complex and intense generous Jerez wine, made from the Palomino Fino grape variety. It ages for 4 years under a veil of flor and subsequently for another 8 years in an oxidative stage at the Emperatriz Eugenia winery in Jerez de la Frontera. The result is a classic and deeply expressive profile, paying homage to the camaraderie and friendship within the Air Force squadron to which Emilio Lustau belonged.

It has a bright amber color with golden reflections. The aroma features distinctly vanilla and dried fruit notes, along with hints of coffee and caramel, creating an enveloping and sophisticated whole. On the palate, it reveals great body, elegance and balance, with a long, dry and spicy finish, very characteristic of the Amontillado style.

It should be served between 13 and 14 ºC to best appreciate its aromatic complexity and structure. At the table, it pairs particularly well with aged cheeses, artichokes, green asparagus, and mushrooms. A distinctive choice for connoisseurs of fortified wines with the depth, character, and authenticity of Jerez.
