Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva
The story of Carlos I dates back to 1889 when a cellar-master found some forgotten barrels in the corner of his cellar. Neither the cellar-master nor anyone else knew where they came from but he realised they contained the most amazing brandy he’d ever tasted. He called it Carlos I to honour a great Spanish King.
Production begins with a selection of the best Airén grapes, distilled in old pot-stills, before ageing in old Amontillado and Oloroso Sherry casks, producing an extraordinary brandy.
Carlos I has a deep, amber colour, with gold accents, it is intensely aromatic with notes of vanilla and cocoa, with great balance, complexity and length on the palate.
