Oloroso VORS is the old Oloroso from Bodegas Tradicion. A VORS sherry must be at least 30 years old and in the case of the Oloroso VORS from Bodegas Tradicion this will be closer to 40-45 years old. It is a highly respected and famous sherry and is a permanent item on the wine list of well-known top restaurants such as El Bulli and The Fat Duck. The Oloroso VORS is bottled twice a year with a typical yield of 1800-2500 bottles maximum. All wines have a handwritten lot number and year on the label. The wine has notes of balsamic vinegar, leather, roasted coffee, cocoa and cedar. At the start the wine is friendly, rich, round and creamy, but when passing through the throat we find a powerful wine, long, naughty with elegant medicinal notes and toasted and bitter chocolate in the aftertaste.

Bodegas Tradicion is despite its name one of the youngest wineries in Jerez and was founded in 1998, something that is not often seen as most of the top sherry houses have existed for generations. It is also unusual for a winery to only sell old wines, especially at such a young company. But this is what Bodegas Tradicion does. They also have an icon of a winemaker in his name namely Jose Maria Quiros, who was a winemaker at Agustin Blazquez and later at Domecq and also an advisor at Alvear Montilla-Moriles for 15 years. The basis is an 18th century solera with 7 criaderas, designed by Agustin Blazquez and later taken over by Bodegas Domecq, as well as a 19th century solera designed by Alfred Gilbey.
