"If you've never had a PX Sherry before then this is one to cut tour teeth. PX Sherries hold all of your dreams in the glass and slowly release them to give you eternal bliss over the course of the night. Liquid date loaf with a side of chocolate cream. This is by no means a dry wine. No, the complete opposite - it is packed with natural sugars from the dried grapes. It is truly a wine unlike any other."

 

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Delgado Zuleta

Delgado Zuleta is the oldest, still active, producer of Sherry. Most Sherry is produced in Jerez but there is a smaller town of Sanlucar de Barrameda, which is more coastal, still permitted to produce Sherry wines, this is where Delgado Zuleta is set up. They have been producing top quality Sherry wines since 1744. The forefront of Delgado Zuleta's portfolio is of the Manzanilla Sherries.

 

 

--------THE GRAPE--------

Pedro Ximenez

Pedro Ximenez is one of the most fantastic white grapes around. As a plain white wine it can oft be dull, bland and boring yet all is changed when made into Sherry in the region of Jerez in southwest Spain. Here, Pedro Ximenez grapes are dried out and made into the most lush sweet Sherry wines. They are the greatest epiphany that any a wine drinker will stumble upon. Liquid date loaf and chocolate all in a glass!


 

--------THE REGION--------

Sanlucar de Barrameda

This is an important part of the small region in the southwest of Spain that makes the legendary fortified wines of Sherry. There are actually three towns that make up the Sherry region.  Jerez the most famous and important town with Sanlucar de Barrameda and El Puerto de Santa Maria the other two.  Manzanilla is a DO in Sanlucar de Barrameda and that wine is known as Fino in Jerez.
