During the early years, Bodegas Lustau operated as an ‘Almacenista’. The Lustau family began bottling their own sherries and exporting by 1950. In the 1980s they expanded their range and introduced the Almacenista range concept of buying and maturing casks from small bodegas to share excellent quality names and styles with enthusiasts around the world. In 1990 the winery was bought by the family-owned Louis Caballero group. Bodegas Lustau is considered a world-class benchmark for top-quality wines. Lustau produces all styles of sherry, from Manzanilla through to Pedro Ximénez, as well as special bottlings, single cask, VOS and VORS sherries.
Each wine of this blend –Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez wines- is aged individually in its own solera and then are blended before bottling in Jerez de la Frontera. A tribute to our Capataz Andrés Pérez, who worked in Lustau in the 60’s as Cellar Master.
Pairs well with light desserts and cakes, but can also be served with blue cheeses or just “on the rocks” with an orange slice.
