2008 Solera

This is a non vintage wine made from Vidal Blanc in the style of Spanish sherry. The most important facet of the production of Sherry is the Solera system of fractional blending. Every year’s bottling is dominated by the most-recent vintage, but is also blended with every previous vintage, which can date back to the founding of the winery. At Rappahannock Cellars, the Solera was established in 2000. This wine is characterized by aromas of almonds, cashews, and citrus fruits. The palate is rich in texture with a sweetness that balances the strong acidity of Vidal Blanc. 8% residual sugar. Sulfite free since 2006.
