Larios1866GranReserva(700mL)

<p>Here’s to the finest of Spanish Brandies.</p><p><em>The Osborne distillery </em>was founded over 200 years ago, in <em>1772</em>, in the Andalusian town of<em> El Puerto de Santa María</em>, where it still remains located. This now 6th generation family-run business started with sherry productionand later expanded into Brandy in the mid-19th century. They’re known for having the <em>richest style of all the Spanish brandies</em>, adding specially grown and macerated plums, almonds, and other fruits and nuts to its brandies at an early stage in the maturation process. Their logo is the <em>Toro</em>, after the black bull, which has become a<em> Spanish cultural icon.</em></p><p><em>Larios 1866 Gran Reserva</em> starts with a base of white Wine that’s made from <em>Airén</em>, which is a white variety that’s indigenous in <em>La Mancha in the Spanish region of Toledo</em>. After the base is distilled, this fantastic Spanish Brandy is aged Solera & Criaderas style for about<em> 12 years. </em>The final result is a Gran Reserva Brandy that greets with a rich nose that evolves into a gently warm palate, rounded by a smooth yet toasted finish. Savor this one after dinner with your close ones: neat, or on the rocks.</p>
