"The NV La Bota de Amontillado Bota Punta 109 is a very old wine they selected from the cooperative of Trebujena that had never been bottled before. The cooperative was created in 1970, but one of the members had these butts from before; their history was really unknown, but the wine has a profile of coastal Amontillado (from Sanlúcar or Trebujena) with less glycerin, sharp and saline, not as sharp or as bitter as the iconic NPI but with crazy numbers—alcohol, acidity, dry extract and everything. It's very intense but very balanced. An amazing wine that should live forever. It was bottled into 1,200 half bottles (one bota) in October 2021. 98 Points, LG, September 2022."

"About 50 years old on average, bottled to preserve the wine. They recommend drinking a little bit on its own, ‘maybe with almonds or very old cheese, reading quietly on a rainy day’ or with spicy East Asian food such as wasabi. This is in Montilla but a new regulation will allow this bodega and its like to call its wines sherry. Half-bottle. Rich and round on the nose, a little demanding on the end but it smells of shoe polish and richness. Long and very clean. A curiosity. 16 Points, JR, November 2022." Jancis Robinson 16 Points
