The Soleo Collection takes its name from the tradition of sun-drying grapes which creates the foundation for crafting the finest Spanish sherry. The grapes are placed under the heat of the Andalusian sun where they change from bright green and yellow to deep purple signalling the perfect moment for fermentation.
The range has also parted ways with vintages and is focusing on age statements. Matured entirely in sherry seasoned oak casks and 100% natural in colour, you’re in for a real sherry delight with this 25-year-old beauty.
The packaging of this 25yo is by far the most beautiful we’ve ever seen from The Glenrothes with the bottle virtually suspended within a robust, wooden frame. Tasting notes and The Glenrothes mission statement are engraved into the outer side panels of the timber with the grey colour reflecting the mature grape which has completed its full evolution.
