A sherry sensation.
Produced by the Spanish winery Bodegas Williams & Humbert. It was founded in 1877 by Sir Alexander Williams, a sherry connoisseur, and Arthur Humbert, an international relations specialist. Located in the geographical triangle formed by the Spanish cities of Jerez de la Frontera, El Puerto de Santa María and Sanlúcar de Barrameda, the winery enjoys a unique microclimate for Wine production – which is especially important if you own Europe's largest Wine cellar.
Gran Duque D’Alba XO was first launched in 1945 and named for the Great Duke of Alba. It is created from a balanced blending of Gran Duque de Alba and Gran Duque de Alba Oro soleras and matured for 18 years in American oak casks.
Gran Duque De Alba XO was named Best Spanish Brandy in the 2013 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
