Why You'll Love It
A vermouth for people who enjoy sherry as much as a good aperitif. The Oloroso base brings deep savoury nuttiness, while Moscatel and bitter botanicals provide sweet citrus and spice. Serve simply with ice and orange, or use sparingly in a serious cocktail.
About The Producer
Valdespino is one of the great historic names of Jerez, with roots traced to Alfonso Valdespino in the thirteenth century and commercial records dating back to the fifteenth. Unlike many sherry houses, it owns substantial vineyards, including prized albariza plots in the Macharnudo pago, and has long been admired for single-vineyard wines, traditional soleras and extended ageing. The bodega became part of the Estévez family business in 1999, and its range now spans finely detailed Finos, ancient oxidative sherries and some of Andalucía's most distinctive aperitifs. The wines retain a strong sense of Jerez's vineyards and the extraordinary complexity that patient ageing can bring.
Winemaking Information
Herencia is made from approximately 72% Palomino-based old Oloroso and 28% Moscatel. The Oloroso comes from Valdespino's Don Gonzalo solera; the wines are macerated with bitter and aromatic botanicals including mugwort, gentian, coriander, elderflower, chamomile, cloves, cinnamon, dried orange and juniper. The blend then rests in old Oloroso casks. The published specification lists 15% ABV and 137 g/L residual sugar.
