Fino Viejísimo Capataz Solera de la Casa

Alvear, Montilla-Moriles

Alvear’s renewed range of wines goes beyond the fabulous redesign of its packaging. The aging time of Fino Capataz has increased up to 12 years, almost on the verge of becoming an Amontillado. It is interesting to appreciate that Montilla's Finos reach alcohol levels of 15% naturally, without the need to add alcohol as it is generally the case in the Sherry Triangle. This is a powerful Fino with notes of glycerin and delicious salty almond flavours leading to a long, creamy finish. 93 points
