Jerez-Xérès-Sherry
Sherry's magic lies in the solera: old wine perpetually married to young, creating a liquid that tastes of no single vintage but rather of centuries compressed into a glass. Here, the fortification is not an afterthought but the foundation—a deliberate act that transforms pale Palomino into everything from bone-dry saline to luscious dark velvet.
