Bodegas Faustino Gonzalez | Cruz Vieja Fino En Rama | $49.86 x 6 750 ml bottles
Bodegas Faustino González’s Cruz Vieja Fino En Rama is crafted from the highest-quality Palomino grapes grown in the historic Pago de Montealegre vineyard, located within the prestigious Jerez Superior sub-zone. En Rama refers to a style of Sherry that is bottled with minimal clarification or filtration, preserving the wine's purity and allowing it to express the authentic character of Jerez in its most natural form.
The wine displays a warm golden hue with amber highlights. The nose is intensely expressive, offering distinctive aromas of toasted almonds, fresh bread dough, chamomile, sea spray, and chalky minerality, with subtle notes of yeast and flor. Bone dry and beautifully textured on the palate, it delivers remarkable precision and a savoury, saline character. The finish is exceptionally long and persistent, leaving lingering notes of almond, brioche, and a signature maritime freshness.
Bottle volume: 750ml
Vinification: Fermentation takes place in traditional American oak casks at a controlled temperature of 22–24°C over a period of no more than ten days.
Maturation: The wine is aged biologically beneath a protective layer of flor yeast in American oak casks at the winery's historic cellars in Jerez de la Frontera. It matures for 5–7 years using the traditional criaderas y solera system, the hallmark aging method of Sherry production, which imparts the wine's distinctive freshness, complexity, and unmistakable Fino character.
