Jalifa 30 Years
Let yourself be tempted by the mysterious taste of Amontillado Sherry Jalifa 30 Years from the Spanish winery Williams & Humbert Bodegas!
Amontillado Jalifa 30 Years is a dry sherry made from the highest quality Palomino grapes from the Jerez Superior region, Pago Balbaína.
It matures primarily in American oak barrels using the Jerez Criaderas y Soleras system. This aged and long-maturing sherry first aged for 8 years under a special layer of yeast before an additional 22 years of aging contributed to its deliciously full body and nutty flavor.
The aroma is dominated by pronounced notes of toasted almonds, hazelnuts, dried figs, salty minerals, and dry oak wood.
The taste is dry, intense, and complex – toasted nuts, almond skin, salty caramel, tobacco notes, old wood, and a subtle oxidative saltiness that is typical of great Amontillado. The finish is extremely long, dry, salty, nutty, and deeply layered – a true expression of genuine aging in the combination of biological and oxidative development.
Jalifa 30 Años is a sherry for connoisseurs – dry, old, aristocratically complex. Ideal with nuts, hard cheeses, Iberian ham, smoked fish, or as a meditation wine.
