LUSTAU OLOROSO DULCE ANADA 1990 LUSTAU OLOROSO DULCE ANADA 1990

This is one seriously good Sherry. From the 1990 vintage, the wine has spend 17 years American oak casks to develop a deep, sweet and stunning complexity. About as far away from Harvey's Bristol Cream as a sweet Sherry can get. This is the real thing!
