The wine

The Valdespino range of old wines is a range of unique sherries, matured over periods of more than 20 years (VOS, Vinum Optimum Signatum 'Very Old Sherry') or 30 years (VORS, Vinum Optimum Rare Signatum 'Very Old Rare Sherry’); these are wines with considerable character - intense, complex and profound.

The Amontillado Coliseo is produced using Manzanilla from Sanlucar and its age actually exceeds the 30 years required by the Regulating Council to hold the classification VORS, amounting to about 50 years old or half a century. The tiers of casks used in making this wine hold raisiny Manzanillas, so it is concentrated… releasing an absolute panoply of aromas and flavours… saline, dry, and very long and complex through the retronasal passage.
