Hidalgo - Napoleon Amontillado NV Sherry Dark, dry with a nutty aroma. $26.60 / WN-38
From Bodegas Hidalgo. Napoleon Amontillado is a traditional, old style, true Amontillado originating from Manzanilla sherry which is produced only after many years of ageing. Dark with a rich nutty aroma, full flavor and completely dry. This classic amontillado is usually served as an aperitif, but it also combines excellently with a variety of cheeses, almonds and olives. The brand name 'Napoleon' originates from the time of France's occupation of Spain in the early 19th century. In those years Hidalgo maintained a healthy trade selling some of the finer sherry to the French officers under their leader's name and, at the same time, to the British with the 'Wellington' Sherry.
