Fernando de Castilla Classic Amontillado NV

Fernando de Castilla Classic Amontillado is a wonderful example of the famous, rich, amber coloured style of Sherry. It is just off dry (2g/l residual sugar) and packed with nutty, dried fruit aromas. It is an intense and complex drink with great freshness and a plump mouth sensation that finishes dry.

Bodegas Fernando de Castilla, founded in 1972, is a relatively young Bodegas which was created by Fernando Andrada-Vanderwilde. Fernando took over some old sherry and brandy soleras from a couple of local bodegas with the intention of producing the finest Brandy in Spain. He named the Bodegas after King Fernando de Castilla “The Saint” who conquered much of Andalusia in the 13th Century. In 1999 Jan Pettersen, a Norwegian with 15 years’ experience at Osborne, bought the company and continues to produce some of Spain’s finest Brandy alongside high quality, complex Sherries. They are widely regarded as one of Sherries best independent producers.
