Single Cask “Alcalde”

The Bota Única Alcalde is a cask found among the old amontillados that Barbadillo treasures in Bodega La Cilla.
In this space, it coexists with the Reliquias and the unique casks of Los Niños. The group of casks to which it belongs yields an amontillado of remarkable depth and salinity, as expected from the finest oxidative wines of Sanlúcar.

The fact that it is a tonel (large cask), rather than one of the 500-liter butts that make up the class, has given Alcalde greater concentration. We believe that decades of smaller extractions and the very nature of the wood in which the wine has rested have forged this distinct personality.
