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.

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.

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