AN INTRODUCTION TO SHERRY

All sherry comes from Western Andalusia,

from within the triangle that is formed by

the towns Jerez de la Frontera, Sanlúcar de

Barrameda and El Puerto de Santa María.

This is the unique method of blending wines

in oak barrels, which are stacked on top of

one another in rows of three or four high.

Wine for bottling is taken from the bottom

row (solera), and the barrel is topped up

from the row above. Over many years

this blending process along with even

temperature and himidity produces a

consistent style.

THE SHERRY TRIANGLE THE GRAPES

PalominoIs by far the most planted, creating a light

tasting table wine but transformed into

something sublime after undergoing the

solera system aging process.

Pedro Ximénez (PX)Used for sweetening some styles, while

100% PX wines are usually extraordinarily

sweet.

MoscatelAlso sweetens, while on its own makes a

unique, fresh grapey and sweet style.

FINO | Light, dry and classic style, very dry and crisp with hints of almonds and a fresh yeasty flavour.

Tío Pepe FinoGonzález ByassClassic very dry all-rounder – perfectly balanced and amazingly versatile.

PALO CORTADO | A rare variety of sherry that is initially aged under flor to become a fino or amontillado, but inexplicably loses its veil of flor and begins aging oxidatively as an oloroso. The result is a wine with some of the richness of oloroso and some of the crispness of amontillado.

SHERRY

OLOROSO SECO | Darker and richer with a smooth and medium to full-bodied finish.

AlfonsoGonzález Byass10 year old, honey, caramel and grilled nuts. ‘The Fonz’ is a very dry wine,

robust on the palate but still so smooth.

meld with dried fruit notes and hints of caramel; a wine of poise and delicacy.
