Viticulture

The amontillado is in fact an old fino that has been aged for more than 8 years, in the case of the Tio Diego, it has been aged for more than 17 years. Amontillado, like fino, is constantly protected by the flor (veil), which allows for very careful oxidation. In principle, wines that do not have the characteristic freshness to produce fino (young) are destined for ageing and the production of amontillado.
