Brandy Solera Gran Reserva Family Reserve, Bodegas Lustau, 500ml

, Spain

Profound, elegant and utterly singular, Lustau Brandy Solera Gran Reserva Family Reserve is a liquid heirloom, a spirit once made solely for the Lustau family’s own enjoyment. Deep mahogany with bronze reflections, it opens with commanding aromas of liquorice, dark chocolate and old Oloroso, lifted by hints of walnut, fig and polished oak. The palate is sumptuous and layered with a cascade of roasted cocoa, dried fruit and sweet spice unfolding in perfect harmony. Silky in texture yet profoundly concentrated, it glides into a long, warming finish with whispers of caramel, cedar and dried orange peel. Complex, contemplative and quietly majestic, it’s a brandy that speaks in the voice of time itself.

For when: the evening deserves something extraordinary and unrepeatable.
Pairs with: dark chocolate, aged Manchego, roasted hazelnuts or simply solitude.

Drawn from a tiny solera of just five casks, this rare brandy was originally reserved for the Lustau family, making it one of the most exclusive expressions ever released from the house. Aged for 25 years in American oak barrels that previously held both Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez Sherries, it unites the depth and dryness of Oloroso with the velvety sweetness and richness of PX.

At 40% ABV, the Family Reserve stands as the ultimate expression of Lustau’s mastery of wood, time and balance, a brandy of immense power, poise and polish. Sip it neat, slowly, and without distraction: this is Jerez’s essence, distilled into a moment of pure, enduring grace.

  • Producer Information

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.
