Description
To speak of Romate Oloroso Don José is to speak of time, patience and a centuries-old tradition. It is not a wine to be made in a hurry or for those who are looking for predictable flavours. It is an experience, a journey to the heart of Jerez, where the oak casks keep secrets that only the years know how to reveal.
The Bodega Sánchez Romate, founded in 1781, is one of the few that is still locally owned, and this is evident in every glass. Its wines breathe the air of a house that has seen generations go by, preserving the essence of a Sherry with its own identity. Romate Oloroso Don José is born from Palomino grapes (100%) grown in the white soils of albariza, rich in calcium carbonate, which reflect the sun and retain moisture, allowing a balanced maturation.
Winemaking
The production of Romate Oloroso Don José follows the art of oxidative ageing. Unlike other sherries, here there is no veil of flor to protect the wine from oxygen. On the contrary, it is allowed to breathe, to evolve, to transform. After fortification to 17%, it is placed in American oak casks, where it ages for about 18 years in the classic criaderas y solera system. The result is a wine with depth, history and impeccable structure.
Taste
When you bring Romate Oloroso Don José to your glass, you know you're in for something special. Its dark mahogany colour, deep and bright, promises intensity. And it does not disappoint. On the nose, a symphony of nuts, noble woods and a subtle toasted touch arouse curiosity. It's the kind of wine you could sniff for minutes, discovering new nuances with every breath.
On the palate, the experience is hypnotic. Unctuous, silky, with a glycerine that envelops the palate and leaves a long, dry, elegant finish. There is no rush on this journey: Romate Oloroso Don José stays with you, leaving echoes of nuts and wood with every sip.
If you want to accompany it, opt for dishes with personality. A well-stewed oxtail, some mellow cheeks, or even one of those cured cheeses that leave their mark. And if you prefer to enjoy it on its own, on a quiet afternoon, it's also a perfect plan. Because Romate Oloroso Don José only needs a moment and a good glass to shine.
