An exceptional Jerez Brandy

Discover the rich and complex flavour of Fernando De Castilla SOLERA GRAN RESERVA Brandy de Jerez 15 Años, a 15-year-old brandy that represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship. This prestigious brandy, produced by the renowned house Fernando de Castilla, is a true experience for the senses. The base of this exceptional drink is the Airén grape, carefully selected for its special characteristics. The distillation of the finest white wines, followed by a meticulous ageing process, gives the brandy its unique character.

Traditional Jerez Method

The ageing process of the Fernando De Castilla SOLERA GRAN RESERVA follows the traditional Jerez method, using the ‘criadera y solera’ system. This time-tested system, in which brandy is divided among different barrels and periodically blended, ensures consistent quality and a harmonious character in every bottle. Before the distillates enter this system, they undergo pre-maturation in American oak casks. This pre-maturation in oak casks, combined with the perfect blend of different criaderas and the solera, significantly influences the final taste, texture, and aroma.

The Taste of Experience

The Fernando De Castilla SOLERA GRAN RESERVA Brandy de Jerez 15 Años presents itself with a wide range of subtle aromas and flavors. The long maturation in oak casks, previously used for Oloroso and Amontillado sherries from Jerez, gives the brandy an elegant, bright, and refined oak profile. The palate is smooth, balanced, dry, and round. Each sip reveals a new layer of complexity, with nuances of nuts, dried fruit, spices, and hints of vanilla. The intense and elegant flavor develops subtly on the tongue, leaving a long, lingering finish.

Quality from Jerez

Jerez’s microclimate, known for its ideal conditions for aging brandy, contributes significantly to the quality and character of this exceptional brandy. The specific characteristics of the local wineries, including their traditional methods and expertise, are also essential factors. The carefully selected “holandas” (the brandy that comes from the alquitaras (distillations)) are aged for several years under the most ideal conditions within the ‘criaderas’ and ‘solera’ systems before they are ready to be bottled.

A Perfect Occasion

Whether you are a seasoned brandy lover or looking for a special experience, the Fernando De Castilla SOLERA GRAN RESERVA Brandy de Jerez 15 Años is a perfect choice for special occasions or simply to enjoy its unique flavour. Serve it chilled for a fresh and fruity flavour, or leave it at room temperature to discover its full, rich complexity. This brandy also makes an exceptional addition to cocktails or dessert dishes.

More than just a drink

With its 15 years of aging, a refined flavor, combined with the authentic “criadera y solera” process, the knowledge and experience that has gone into it, this spirit is much more than just a drink – it enriches your experience. The choice of American oak makes a crucial contribution to the rich flavor profile. This special product reflects the deep-rooted tradition of Jerez and symbolizes the long history and expertise of the distillers at Fernando de Castilla. It offers you a unique opportunity to taste what centuries of experience can produce.
