Winemaking Antique Fino is a wine of four criaderas that originate from a selection of barrels from the Classic Fino solera that were set aside and left untouched for five years. In contrast to highly filtered, fairly young modern Finos that have been fortified only once, this wine boasts a formidable average of 9 years age at bottling, sees minimal filtration and a second fortification (the old fashioned way).

The Character

Tasting Notes Pale gold in the glass, this fino offers lifted aromas of toasted almond, fresh dough, green olive, and citrus peel. The palate is bone-dry and precise, with bright salinity, hazelnut, and a subtle creamy texture that adds depth without losing tension. Clean, long, and savory, it finishes with lasting notes of brine and fresh nuts.

About Fernando de Castilla

Producer Story

Bodegas Rey Fernando de Castilla was founded in 1837, purchased and revitalized in 1999 by Jan Pettersen (a Norweigian with 15 years at Osborne). Jan also took over the cellars of Jose Bustamante next door and quickly established Fernando de Castilla as one of the region’s finest small, independent sherry houses. The company specializes in natural, unblended and unfined products as supreme examples of the ancient winemaking traditions of the Jerez region. The vineyards (farmed without pesticides or herbicides) and winery are all located in Jerez, all sherries are estate bottled.
