VORS Dry Oloroso 30-year-old, Bodegas Lustau

Jerez de la Frontera, Andalucía, Spain

Time, Bottled.

Profound, dignified, and endlessly complex, the VORS Dry Oloroso 30-Year-Old from Bodegas Lustau is a masterwork of patience and precision, a wine that speaks in centuries, not vintages. Deep old gold with bronze glints, it opens with majestic aromas of antique wood, roasted walnut, polished leather and orange marmalade, unfolding into subtler notes of tobacco leaf, spice, and warm varnish. The palate is commanding yet harmonious, rich and mouth-filling, with flavours of caramelised nuts, chestnut purée (marron glacé), bitter orange and old brandy. Each sip builds in intensity, tapering into an extraordinarily long, dry and resonant finish. It’s less a wine, more an experience, an echo of the solera, whispering of time and oak and sea air.

For when: silence is the only fitting accompaniment.
Pairs with: aged cheeses, roasted nuts, or contemplative solitude.

Made from 100% Palomino, this rare Oloroso is drawn from a tiny solera of just nine casks, selected by the late Manuel Lozano, Lustau’s legendary cellar master. Aged for more than three decades in Jerez de la Frontera, it undergoes long oxidative ageing, developing immense concentration, aromatic depth, and textural richness.

Part of Lustau’s elite VORS (Very Old Rare Sherry) collection, certified by the Consejo Regulador as being over 30 years old, this Oloroso stands as one of the greatest expressions of its kind: dry yet layered with warmth, history and grace. Serve lightly chilled at 13–14°C in a fine glass, and take your time, this is a wine to be savoured as slowly as it was made.

Regarded as one of the greatest and most respected names in Sherry, Bodegas Lustau stands at the pinnacle of Andalusian winemaking, a benchmark for quality, authenticity, and craftsmanship. Founded in 1896 by José Ruiz-Berdejo, the estate began as a small almacenista (stockholder) ageing and blending wines for larger houses. Over the decades, Lustau evolved from humble beginnings into a global ambassador for fine Sherry, earning acclaim for its meticulous sourcing, blending, and innovation.

Based in Jerez de la Frontera, with additional bodegas in El Puerto de Santa María and Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Lustau uniquely represents all three of the Sherry Triangle’s towns, allowing the house to showcase the full spectrum of terroir and style: from the saline freshness of Manzanilla to the nutty depth of Amontillado and the velvety opulence of Pedro Ximénez.

Lustau’s defining strength lies in its unparalleled range. The Solera Reserva series highlights traditional, meticulously aged styles; the Almacenista collection honours small independent producers and their individual soleras; and the VORS (Very Old Rare Sherry) range offers century-old treasures of staggering complexity and rarity. Every wine undergoes patient maturation under flor or oxidative ageing in centuries-old casks, capturing the delicate balance between time, air, and wood.

Under the guidance of Emilio Lustau’s successors and now as part of the Caballero Group, the bodega continues to set the gold standard for Sherry, combining heritage and innovation with unwavering precision. Today, Lustau is celebrated not only for its technical mastery but for preserving the living soul of Jerez: wines of profound depth, layered aromatics, and timeless Andalusian grace.
