Overview:
Lustau En Rama Fino Jerez Saca is a unique and refined Fino Sherry, showcasing the distinct characteristics of Jerez de la Frontera's inland climate. Aged under "flor" (a layer of yeast) in American oak casks for four years, this Fino is bottled without any treatment, ensuring that it retains its full, unadulterated flavours. Released in Spring 2022, this Fino has an intense golden hue with amber reflections, presenting an aromatic profile that is both pungent and complex. It embodies the essence of traditional Jerez wines, offering a more rounded and fuller style than typical Finos from the region.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is expressive with yeasty, white bread aromas, accompanied by subtle hints of chalk and butter. The palate is crisp, dry, and complex, with the signature freshness of a Fino, along with underlying richness from the oak ageing. The yeasty character is prominent, with a clean, refreshing finish, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship and the natural beauty of the wine’s unfiltered state. This Fino is an ideal match with seafood dishes like oysters, shellfish, and white fish. It also pairs beautifully with tapas such as almonds, olives, and Iberian ham. Its fresh, dry character makes it perfect for light appetizers or as an aperitif.
