96pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The NV Tradicion Amontillado VORS, certainly has the more complex and subtle nose of all these VORS and is on average 45 years old. It has a very clean nose, with elegance and complexity, powerful but subtle notes of hazelnuts, honey and even some dates. The medium-bodied palate shows a sharp wine with strong salinity, it has the power and the lightness, in a very difficult combination.

92pts Wine Spectator

A piercing, bone-dry amontillado, with bitter orange, dried persimmon, Brazil nut and ginger notes, carried by finely beaded and very racy acidity. Almost bony through the finish, but the flavors are subtly persistent and keep pace with the salinity.

Winemaker Notes

The Amontillado from Bodegas Tradicion is from a selection of soleras from Jerez, El Puerto de Santa Maria and Sanlucar and boasts an average of 45 years aging.
