Brandy Solera Gran Reserva Finest Selection, Bodegas Lustau

, Spain

Profound, luxurious and endlessly smooth, Lustau Brandy Solera Gran Reserva Finest Selection is the pinnacle of the house’s artistry, a spirit shaped by time, oak, and generations of expertise. Deep mahogany with golden glints, it opens with sumptuous aromas of dried plum, raisin, and milk chocolate, laced with hints of vanilla, old oak and polished leather. The palate is velvety and expansive with rich flavours of burnt caramel, roasted nuts, and cocoa that glide effortlessly across the tongue, balanced by subtle notes of black pepper and liquorice that add complexity and lift. The finish is long, warm and refined, echoing with sweet spice and Sherry-soaked fruit. An exceptional brandy that wears its age with effortless grace.

For when: only something rare and resonant will do.
Pairs with: dark chocolate, cured cheeses, roasted hazelnuts or fine cigars.
If this spirit were a sound, it’d be a deep jazz note, slow, rich, and endlessly smooth.

Aged for 15 years in a secret blend of American oak casks that once held Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez Sherries, some of which are seasoned for up to 50 years, this brandy captures the essence of Jerez’s solera heritage. The Oloroso casks lend dry nuttiness and structure, while the PX barrels contribute richness, sweetness and plush texture, uniting in perfect harmony.

At 40% ABV, Lustau’s Finest Selection represents the apex of their brandy craft, a symphony of warmth, wood, and time. Sip it neat and unhurried, and let its layers unfold; an exquisite spirit that bridges Sherry’s soul and brandy’s elegance in one golden, lingering moment.

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.
