Tio Pepe Fino En Rama Jerez (DO Sherry)
€25.00 Bradleys
Cherish a unique, special, and unrepeatable wine.
Our Fino En Rama, from the sherry triangle, comes in an inviting golden colour. Notes of yeast in the aromas. And immediately it hits the palate - captivating, fresh, intense, smooth and with a creamy mouthfeel - you know you have made a friend.
Yeah, just like that, almost without thinking. Because sometimes, enjoying a wine is much easier than what “they try to explain to us”. A wine, like this, can connect with you. This is the closest you'll ever get to drinking sherry straight from the cask.
Your new amigo is the ultimate expression of organic ageing; it is unfiltered and unclarified Tío Pepe, extracted directly from the centre of the cask in spring, when the “flower” (flor) growth is at its thickest. Due to the uniqueness of the product, it is produced in very small quantities and is recommended for consumption within the first three months after bottling.
One reason why it is so special is that just 95 casks (from a possible 20,000) were finally selected to contribute to the current blend. Their Constancia and Rebollo soleras were thoroughly searched and sampled as the winemaker looked for the unique personality that makes this 15th edition of Tio Pepe en Rama the “elixir of our winery”.
