Alexander Jules Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Amontillado 3|10 (NV)

Aged 18 years (9 under flor) and a continuation of the solera utilized for the Alexander Jules Manzanilla 8/41—thus the same wine, but with an additional 9 years of oxidative aging.  What historically would have been called an Amontillado Fino (a young Amontillado), it has one foot in its Manzanilla upbringing, the other in early oxidative character.  This is the most food friendly style of sherry. Spontaneous fermentation and flor.  Bottled “en rama” with a gentle 0.65 filtration to preclude flor development in bottle.  No SO2, fining or cold stabilization.
