At Rey Fernando De Castilla two quality lines are used, the "Classic" and the "Antique". The special Antique series is formed by individual soleras that are not blended, cleared or filtered. The sherries are aged in oak for a long time. They are bottled in clear glass bottles to show their true color and hue. Nothing is hidden! Sherry's that can rightly be seen (and enjoyed!)! the wine has partially had 'Flor'. The taste of the wine is between an oloroso and an amontillado. Sherry's that are at least 25 years old are used here. It is striking that only 1-2% of all sherry develops into Palo Cortado. The storage time of the wine is almost endless, but further oxidation on the bottle is limited. Around 3000 bottles have been made from this series.
The color is gold to amber. The scent is very complex with traces of walnut, dried mushrooms, orange and mandarin peel, raisin, quince and balsamic notes. Clearly roasted. He has a hint of sweet in the scent. The taste is intensely absolutely gastromic, a ripe experience with many nutty aspects and dried fruit such as fig and raisin experience, Clear mandarin.
