Wine from Sherry

A Spanish wine crafted close to the town of Jerez de la Frontera, Sherry is a popular white wine that is made mostly out of the Palomino grape variety.  The origin of Sherry comes from a location of a lot of hills and has been crafted in an array of various types. This wine has been crafted since the 16th century and has been a successful export wine, typically brought to countries such as England, and then exported all over the globe. The town of Jerez has been a popular spot for vine growing since the art of wine producing was brought to Spain around 1100 B.C.  When the Roman Empire took control of the area, the process was continued. The technique of distallation was brought to the region by the Moorish people, which led to the creation of brandy. During that time, Jerez was also called by the term Sherish, which lends to the name of the Spanish wine Sherry. Winemaking continued through the centuries, making this region one of the richest wine-producing regions in the world. Today, the wine is crafted in around 10 million cases. The wine is said to be a taste that one has to get acquainted with, because of its possible salty and robust flavor. Currently, there is a trend underway to increase the popularity of this wine due to its large supply and rich history.

"Violet color. Aromas and flavors of mashed raisins and prunes and chocolate nuts with a bright, sweet medium-full body and a subtle, long fig paste, mincemeat pie, and baklava finish with no oak. A rich and toothsome PX Sherry with great length and depth."
