Alvear
Alvear is a famous name in Sherry production. This fortified wine comes from the Jerez region of Spain. The Alvear winery started in 1729 and is in Montilla, Andalusia. While many know Sherry from Jerez, Alvear shows the quality of the Montilla-Moriles area.
Alvear's sherries mainly use the Pedro Ximénez grape, not the Palomino grape common in Jerez. This grape is known for its sweet, sun-dried taste. It's key to Alvear's unique sherries. The local soil, with its white chalky layers, and the warm climate are perfect for growing these grapes.
The company uses an old solera system to age their sherries. This blends wines from different years for a consistent style. It lets younger sherries gain traits from older ones, creating complex flavours and aromas.
They make many types of sherries. They range from dry finos with almond and yeasty tastes to rich olorosos with nutty and caramel notes. They suit all kinds of tastes.
It's more than a winery. It's a family tradition, passed down through generations. Their dedication to sherry-making is clear in the awards they win. Alvear isn't just making sherry. They're keeping a tradition alive. They celebrate Andalusia and its history. Their wines bring the feel of the sunny vineyards and cool cellars of Montilla to the world.
