| Description: | One of the most exceptional of the small, independent sherry houses, Rey Fernando de Castilla was revitalized in 1999 by Jan Pettersen, a Norwegian with a passion for top quality sherry and 15 years experience at Osborne. After taking over the cellars of the Sherry shipper José Bustamante, located next door to the main facilities of Fernando de Castilla, Jan quickly established this winery as masters of the production and aging of fine, unblended, untreated Sherries. The bodega's reputation is based on the excellence of the Antique range of intensely pure and complex single solera Sherries that undergo extended aging times in the cellar (the Antique Px is a 30 year old system, while the Fino is 8 years) lending to their complexity and depth. The vineyards and winery are located in Jerez, and all Sherries are estate bottled. There are never any pesticides or herbicides used in the vineyards making these sherries sustainably crafted. Rey Fernando's Fino Sherry is made of 100% Palomino grape, pressed and fermented in stainless steel. Spontaneous yeast fermentation takes place, the sherry is bottled unfiltered, and Abv is increased to 15%. This Sherry has lovely aromatics, with wonderfully salty mineral, almond and hazelnut notes, crisp acidity, and light-bodied, dry flavors that are intense yet delicate. Yummy! Serve with Manchego cheese, Marcona almonds and Green Olives for a Spain-inspired aperitivo!. |
