A 50cl bottle of 1996 Fondillon from Spain's Alicante region. This is a historic unfortified wine style made from fully ripe bunches of destemmed Monastrell (Mourvèdre) grapes harvested from 60 year old vines which are slowly fermented to retain 40 grams per litre of residual sugar. The wine is then aged for over 20 years in 1730 litre old American oak barrels.

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.
This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
