The ageing method used for allsherries is known as the solera system which consists of a continuous blending ofyoung sherries with older ones resulting in a sherry of consistent quality. Maturedin solera, in casks of American oak in the sherry town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda.The maturation is first ‘biological’, i.e. under a veil of yeast or flor followed bythe ‘oxidative’ process, which begins as the yeast dies off due to lack of nutrientsavailable in the Sherry. Then follows several (over thirty years) of ageing in cask, togive a dry, complex wine. Wines of such age are designated VORS, (Very Old RareSherry).How To Serve: A pungent aperitif, but also great with many foods: Tapas, soup, dry cheeses andeven beef.Amontillado Napoleón Vinos Viejos de Hidalgo 30 Year Old VORS) La Gitana from Fraziers Wine Merchants</p>
