Made in the region of Andalusia, Spain.
Solera is a process for aging vinegar by fractional blending in such a way that the finished product is a mixture of ages, with the average age gradually increasing as the process continues over many years. All of the Veleta Sherry Vinegars are produced using this Solera process.
This ageing method involves a constant cycle of blending which gives the finished vinegar a complex aroma and long-lasting nutty flavor.
With vibrant, deep colors indicative of the slow, unhurried ageing in oak casks over many years. The characteristic acidity of all these vinegars have been mellowed with slow maturation and offer an exciting spectrum of flavors.
Note: You'll notice an increase in the price of some of our DEALS this year. This is due to the drastic increase in my wholesale costs including freight, inflationary costs in Spain (including olive oil) and the high cost of shipping in the US. As always, we attempt to keep these increases at a minimum.
