El Maestro Sierra Brandy Reserva is produced entirely on the two-hundred year old estate. After the grapes used to craft the brandy have been harvested, they are fermented and then distilled. The resulting brandy is then solera-aged for a minimum of 20 years. Solera aging is a process that has generally been reserved for aging cognacs, ports and sherries. It involves filling a series of casks at different intervals over a long period of time. As brandy from the oldest cask is emptied and bottled, the cask is re-filled with an equivalent amount of brandy from the second-oldest cask in the solera. This cascading effect continues until the youngest cask in the solera is filled with new brandy. As a result, no cask in the solera is ever fully emptied. In addition, as the younger brandy ages and cascades through the solera, its average age and complexity gradually increases over time.
