Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

Bodegas Tradicion, Olorosso, VORS, 30 Years, NV

When fortification takes place early and as a result no flor is allowed to develop the result is an Oloroso – a dry sherry but one without the fresh saline cut of those aged under yeast. Here the emphasis is on nutty, deep dark complexity, notes of raisin, smoked mushrooms, blond tobacco and fine wood flow from the glass, while caramel, cocoa and roasted coffee flavours linger long on the impressively endowed, intense and concentrated palate. While the average age is 42 years, the oldest wines in the solera date back to the 1860s. Meditative, intense, rich and full, a wine to partner fatty dishes, stews, and potently flavoured game. The bodega have full faith that once opened a bottle should last for up to a year if kept upright with the cork put back in - so there’s no need to rush through the bottle, would that restraint so easily be counted upon!

Bodegas Tradicion

Bodegas Tradicion

Bodegas Tradición is a unique Sherry Bodega that bottles consistently genre-defining, mature wines that are a veritable assault on the senses - in the nicest possible way. By focusing on very old casks that have not been chill filtered, blended, stabilized, clarified, sweetened, or seen the addition of sulphites, Tradición have proven themselves one of the very best in the business. Proudly bottling small-batches with the highest average ages on the market, the range includes a twelve year old Fino, approximately four times as old and complex as your average Fino on the high street, and an Amontillado, Oloroso and Palo Cortado with average ages far exceeding the thirty-year VORS designates on the label. A twenty year old Cream Sherry VOS is the best we have ever tasted, the range capped by a lusciously sweet yet layered twenty year old Pedro Ximenez VOS. Each category provides great intellectual stimulation. Like all great wines though, the Bodegas Tradición Sherries are as splendid alone as they are with the right dishes, with food pairing potential way beyond the simple aperitif.
