Sherry
Sherry holds a special place in the history of wine as one of the oldest types still available today. At The Fine Wine Company we are dedicated to offering a range of sherries, all brought in from the specialist area in Andalucia where sherry is produced.
Our range represents the plethora of flavours and styles available from this tiny region from the lighter, dry Manzanilla to more intense, deep Pedro Ximenez with its sweeter tones lending it to use in desserts and as a digestif. There is an amazingly wide range of different sherry options available from such a small, distinct region of Spain yet we have worked tirelessly to ensure our range represents as many quality examples as possible.

This Manzanilla has been aged for 8 years before bottling, making it a �Pasada� style. The extra ageing on a �pasada� builds complexity, body and adds a hint of oxidation as the veil of �flor� begins to thin. It is also an �En Rama� or �raw� manzanilla meaning the wine has been bottled straight from the cask with no fining or filtration to preserve the body and freshness. The �Pastora�, or �shephe…
