The House of Osborne was founded in 1772 by Thomas Osborne and has been continuously family owned and operated ever since. The non-vintage Solera BC 200 Oloroso comes from a solera started in 1864. Production is limited to 450 liters per year. Medium to dark amber in color it offers up compelling aromas of spice and brown sugar. Full-bodied (22% alcohol) and very intense and concentrated, its flavors are medium sweet and remarkably complex. (JM)
