Fino Tradición

written by admin

Bodegas Tradición was founded in 1998 with a singular purpose: to acquire and preserve the oldest, most exceptional soleras in Jerez and present them with complete transparency — no filtration, no fining, no commercial adjustment. The Fino is the youngest wine in the portfolio, around seven years of age, and already reflects the house’s insistence on quality over accessibility.

The colour is pale gold with greenish highlights. The nose is expressive and complex for a wine of this age: chalk and albariza mineral, chamomile, green almond and a deeper biological note than most young Finos achieve. The palate is dry, well-structured and precise, with excellent natural acidity and a long, saline, slightly bitter finish. A Fino that rewards attention rather than refreshment — a fitting introduction to one of Jerez’s most philosophically coherent producers.

Coquinero Fino En Rama

written by admin

Coquinero is Osborne’s en rama Fino, released with minimal filtration to preserve the full, unmediated character of the wine as it exists in the solera. The name refers to the coquina clam, a small shellfish found on the Atlantic coast near Jerez — an appropriate reference for a wine whose character is shaped by proximity to the ocean.

The nose is vivid and expressive: chamomile, fresh yeast, lemon zest, chalk and a clean saline note from the coastal influence. The palate is broader and more textural than a filtered Fino, with excellent acidity and a long, slightly pungent finish. Drink cold and fresh within months of bottling. One of the finest en rama releases from a house with long experience in the style.

Amontillado AOS (Rare)

written by admin

Osborne’s Rare AOS Amontillado is drawn from the oldest sections of the house’s historic Amontillado soleras — wines that have been maintained in the great bodegas of Jerez since the nineteenth century. The AOS designation identifies a specific old solera bottling of exceptional age and character.

The nose is rich and complex: toasted hazelnuts, dried citrus peel, old caramel, leather and a fine mineral depth. The palate is dry and concentrated, with excellent natural acidity and a very long, nutty, savoury finish. A rare expression of Amontillado from a house whose soleras predate the foundation of most other bodegas in Jerez.
