Description
Equipo Navazos La Bota 96 Amontillado Jerez, in magnum, comes from a single 2,000-litre cask found during refurbishment of the historic Calle Misericordia bodega.
Equipo Navazos exists to find exceptional individual casks in the sherry region and bottle them unaltered, numbering each release as a bota. During work on the Calle Misericordia bodega in SanlĂșcar de Barrameda, home of the La Guita solera, several vessels stood out for their size and origin, among them a magnificent tonel gordo of 120 arrobas, a 2,000-litre cask standing apart from the main rows against the wall. Navazos had it filled with a selection of the house's best Amontillados, of the same genealogy as earlier releases numbered 37 and 58, and refreshed with a measured proportion of the Manzanilla Pasada from Misericordia. The wine was then left to integrate for several more years, first bottled as No. 69 in late 2016 and drawn again for this saca four years later. The average age is around seventeen to eighteen years, and it is a natural Amontillado.
Serve at 13-14°C and drink within a few weeks of opening. It is a fine aperitif and works with oysters, salted fish, tapas, white meats and spiced Asian dishes.
