Valdespino Medium Dry Amontillado `Contrabandista`

The label was inspired by the painting ‘Venta del Gato’ (The Cat’s Inn), depicting a ‘Contrabandista’ (smuggler) from the early 19th Century. Smugglers often travelled the road between Gibraltar and Jerez, to trade goods from the British Colony in Jerez. This medium dry Amontillado has a light mahogany colour with a bright amber border. The nose shows intense aromas of roasted hazelnuts, raisins and dates, coupled with notes of butterscotch and toffee. This wine is medium-bodied with a perfectly balanced sweetness and a long, smooth finish.
