Lustau ‘Almacenista’ Fino del Puerto (González Obregón) - Jerez, Spain (500 ml)
A beautifully precise and saline single-solera Fino from Bodegas Emilio Lustau, this wine is part of the highly regarded Almacenista range - bottlings sourced from small, independent Sherry producers and released unblended to preserve their individuality and character.
The Almacenista designation highlights wines made by small, traditional producers who age and nurture their own casks before Lustau selects and bottles them - offering a more authentic, artisanal snapshot of Sherry terroir and ageing style.
Finos aged in El Puerto de Santa María tend to show a distinctive marine, saline character, thanks to Atlantic breezes and higher humidity - often giving more delicate, ocean-influenced aromatics compared to inland Jerez styles.
This particular Fino comes from the solera of José Luis González Obregón in El Puerto de Santa María, one of the coolest and most humid zones in the 'Sherry Triangle' - ideal conditions for the development of flor yeast, which defines the style.
The wine shows a pale straw colour with intensely fresh aromas of oyster shell, sea breeze and sourdough, alongside subtle almond and yeast notes. On the palate it is bone dry, light and razor-sharp, with tangy citrus, saline minerality and delicate nuttiness leading to a long, clean, refreshing finish.
