Product description
The history of Emilio Lustau SA dates back to 1896, when the president of the district court, José Ruiz-Berdejo, began cultivating vines on the family estate of Nuestra Señora Esperanza.
He sold his wines to local sherry producers. In the 1940s, his daughter and son-in-law moved the company to the historic part of Jerez de la Frontera and within a few years entered the market with their own range of wines and then brandies. In 1990, Lustau SA merged with another family company, Luis Caballero, and today it is a leading producer of sherry and brandy in the Luis Caballero Group. Lustau Solera Gran Reserva is aged in the solera system for an average of 10 years. The barrels are made of American oak and have been aged for many years with Oloroso sherry. In 2022-2023, this brandy won silver medals at the International Wine & Spirits Competition.
