Lustau Amontillado Escuadrilla (375ml)

Overview

The Lustau Amontillado Escuadrilla is a distinguished Sherry with a rich heritage, crafted in tribute to Emilio Lustau’s camaraderie with the Air Force wing, or "Escuadrilla." Aged in the historic Bodega Emperatriz Eugenia in Jerez de la Frontera, this Sherry undergoes a unique dual ageing process—first biologically and then oxidatively—resulting in an extraordinary balance of elegance and complexity. Its bright amber hue with golden highlights and its refined character make it a timeless choice for connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes

This Amontillado captivates with intense aromas of smoky wood and roasted nuts, enriched by the depth imparted by years of maturation. On the palate, it is dry and elegantly structured, with a harmonious blend of nutty richness and savoury depth. The finish is long and spicy, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and balance. Perfect for sipping on its own or pairing with cured meats, hard cheeses, or rich soups.
