Thirty years of ageing in sherry butts gives Matusalem its dark colour and molasses character with intense and multi-dimensional dried fruit and nut flavours. This scrumptiously sweet oloroso sherry, which Sir Winston Churchill is reputed to have enjoyed, is a delicious partner to blue cheeses, such as Stilton.

The Palomino must destined for La Concha comes from the second press from pneumatic Wilmes presses. Following fermentation to between 11% and 12% alcohol the wine is fortified to 15.5% alcohol and then enters the Elegante Medium solera. Due to the 15.5% alcohol and the unique temperature and humidity in the Jerez cellars a layer of yeast known as the 'flor' will form on the surface of the wine. In order for this flor to form properly an empty space of 100 litres is left in the cask. After 3 years ageing under flor alcohol is added up to 17% killing the flor and allowing the wine to oxidise. At this time 2% Pedro Ximenez is added giving this Medium sherry its sweet sensation.
