Description

Emilio Lustau, S.A. is one of the most exclusive bodegas around today in Jerez de la Frontera. It was founded in 1896 as a wine storage facility for the Nuestra Señora de la Esperanza (Our Lady of Hope) vineyards, on the outskirts of Jerez. Lustau owns over 200 hectares of vineyards, most of which are typically Jerez white albariza soils, and suit the main sherry grape, palomino. The limestone-based soils are able to absorb rain during the wet winters, and then release the moisture to the scorched wine during the hot summers. Closer to the coast, Lustau’s vineyard soils are sandier, and much better suited to the grapes used to make its sweeter wines, pedro ximénez and moscatel.

A brilliant sherry from Lustau, the dry, austere, intensely flavorful non-vintage Puerto Fino exhibits a light green/amber color as well as notes of crushed sea shells, hazelnuts, and spice. This is a top-notch Fino to consume over the next year. Wine Advocate 90
