Having received 45 awards and 10 Gold Medals for its range of amazing Sherries, Lustau was the most awarded European winery in 2015 at this benchmark competition. Of particular note was the performance of Lustau’s VORS (Very Old & Rare Sherry) range of products, with Lustau Amontillado VORS & Palo Cortado VORS both winning Gold Medals for the 4th consecutive year and Lustau Oloroso VORS recognized as the Best Oloroso Wine of the competition. Once again, Lustau VORS Sherries of the main aged styles have been held up as the platinum standard for aged-dated Sherries – more than 30 years old.
