TASTING NOTE

Reliquia Amontillado is Bodegas Barbadillo’s very old amontillado expression within its current or recently verified portfolio. The current documentation records more than 100 years, producer-declared. The profile is kept edition-specific where the public documentation is incomplete. The current documentation records it as made from 100% Palomino Fino, aged through biological followed by oxidative ageing, with an age statement of More than 100 years, producer-declared, at 22% alcohol and in 37.5cl. Producer-declared age; no separate official age certification claimed.

Amber, with hazelnut, dried citrus, iodine and seasoned wood; dry, lifted and persistent. Biological lift and oxidative depth remain in clear balance.
