We present to you the latest addition to the Sanchez range Romate, he Cardenal Mendoza Angelus was created by the former foreman to try to convey the fragrance of the orange blossoms that flooded the winery’s courtyard every spring.
This essence, combined with the aromas and perfumes of the casks of Jerez wines and brandies maturing in the nearby buildings, was what our foreman tried to define as the aroma of our home city, Jerez de la Frontera. He set to work, attempting to capture the essence of the city with its blend of aromas and flavors in a new spirit.
The foreman began adding and ripening the peels of sweet and bitter oranges from the trees that covered the winery’s courtyard to the famous brandy he was already producing. After receiving praise from those who tasted his new creation, he would reply that he had simply gathered “the angelic characteristics of the Cardinal (our brandy).”
After introducing you to this wonderful product, I would like you to learn about three cocktaildifferent yet easy things we can do with Cardenal Mendoza Angelus.
