Solera-method, is a unique method that is used for the production of sherry. The Solera-method means that 4-7 layers of 600 litres oak barrels lie on each other. The oak barrels that are at the bottom are the oldest and it is from here the wine is bottled. After the wine has been taken out of the bottom oak barrels, the same amount (max. 33% per year) is filled from the oak barrels that are closest to the above and so on. By mixing different vintages with each other, there is no vintage sherry. In some oak barrels during the solera process, a layer of flor (a skin of yeast) is formed during the aged and in some not. The wine, which is aged in oak barrels that have formed the layer of flor, does not come into contact with oxygen and becomes drier than the wine that has not formed the layer of flor, comes into contact with oxygen. There are solera systems that are over 100 years old.
Sonoma Coast, a US' appellation (AVA) that belongs to the Sonoma County wine district, which in turn belongs to the wine region of the North Coast in California. Sonoma Coast AVA status was awarded in 1987. The appellation has 809 hectares planted with vine. Much of Sonoma County’s most celebrated Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are grown here, yet few wines are actually made in the appellation. It was created to allow wineries with grapes in different vineyards, from the different parts of the appellation, to blend them and still label wines as "estate bottled”. (2016-08)
