I tasted the saca 1/2018 of the NV 1955 Amontillado Solera Cincuentenario next to other very old Amontillado bottlings from Montilla and Jerez, and it performed magnificently. It's really fine and elegant, with a sharp and chiseled palate, pungent aromas and great intensity. It has unusual finesse, finishing dry and salty, with notes of iodine, seaweed and low tide. It's precise, balanced and long, very intense. World-class juice! 250 numbered bottles were filled in February 2018.
Producer
Bodegas Perez Barquero
Situated in the finest areas of the Sierra de Montilla and Moriles Alto, Bodegas Pérez Barquero offers a wide range of quality fortified and sweet wines. Founded in 1905, the vineyards lie between the Guadalquivir, Guadajoz and Genil rivers in Andalucía. The combination of geographical and climatic conditions creates the ideal environment to cultivate the Pedro Ximénez varietal – which is their main grape. While the 100-hectare estate also grows other aromatic red and white varieties, Pérez Barquero is best known for their Pedro Ximénez creations. The bodegas very rare bottles of Amontillado, Oloroso and PX NV Soleras, with the oldest wines dating back to 1905, are as good as it gets. Robert Parker notes “Pérez Barquero is one of the greatest and most consistent wineries in the whole of Andalucía and they deserve a much higher recognition for their great wines.”
