Lustau East India Solera – Sherry Cream with a Soul of History

Inspired by those voyages that matured wine in the ships' holds, Lustau crafts this Sherry Cream by combining old Oloroso with a touch of Pedro Ximénez. The result is a complex, mellow, and elegant wine that flows like a bottled travel diary.
