Solera founded in 1852 and casks built in 1851 in the old Bodega La Honda, intended for the production of fine and “fine amontillados” wines. At a key moment in the history of the Duff-Gordon society, run by the widow of Thomas Osborne, Aurora B hl and Larrea who undertakes an expansion of the business, acquiring in 1857 several winery and cooperage warehouses, among which is La Honda. What did Aurora see in these soles? Were they special wines? It could be those poorly fortified wines whose biological aging refined them and made them more delicate. On the other hand, in the 10s of the last century, the solera consisted of 10 scales when very old and strong fines were sold. However, the consumer began to demand wines with a softer palate, the house decided to launch a new fine extracted from the fifth scale of Fino Honda on the market, thus giving rise to our Fino Quinta, the flagship of Bodegas Osborne.
