The wine

Gran Barquero Amontillado is an irresistible and spectacular Amontillado that will delight any lover of Andalusian fortified wines.

Its long aging under a flower veil of more than 10 years, followed by oxidative aging for no less than 15 years, make this Amontillado a very special wine for its finesse, elegance, complexity and a very gastronomic profile as well as a unbeatable value for money.

Wine critics reviewsReviews by Jancis Robinson and Parker

Pale copper colour. Delicate, elegant fragrance of nuts and white sultana. Salty on the palate, which is delicate a pithy. Quite narrow and fresh, perhaps lacking a little depth in the middle, though it returns with real bite on a long and nutty finish.

— Tom Parker (22/04/2021)JancisRobinson.com16+ JANCIS ROBINSON

The NV Amontillado Gran Barquero is an impressive 25-30 years old. It wears a dark amber robe and a subtle, elegant and focused nose. It’s an Amontillado of finesse, with biological, salty notes and roasted almonds, close to the Fino character. The palate shows a medium-bodied wine of a velvety texture, fine acidity and clean, focused flavors, It represents superb value for the quality it delivers.
