Spanish Fortified
$36.99
Sun-dried grapes yield a dense, sweet and silky fortified wine with exotic spice, red-fruit and caramel notes. Lively acidity keeps the richness lifted and almost refreshing. After pressing, the must is fortified to stop fermentation, clarified, fortified again and transferred to American-oak butts for oxidative ageing through the solera and criaderas system. Serve at room temperature with blue cheese.
