Sherry
Sherry is back in style. From Andalucía,
an area south of Seville, Spain, comes a fortified wine that dates back to the
Roman Empire and that ranges from very dry to lusciously sweet, and food
friendly. It is made from grapes you may be unfamiliar with: Palomino fino,
Pedro Ximénez and moscatel. There are 2 main
categories: fino is pale with fresh, nutty flavor is a fine aperitif or pairs
with seafood; oloroso have more body and some citrus and can be matched with
chicken; amontillado are in between. Pedro Ximénez
is sweet like a tawny port and can hold up to chocolate or ice cream.
In brief, sherry starts out like other
wines with grapes gathered when they are fully ripe, which is usually the end of
August, and officially starts with the Fiesta de la Vendiamia. What makes Sherry
unique is that after the must (juice) has been stored in butts in bodegas for
fermentation, it is fortified with a spirit (usually a local brandy) which kills
the yeast. The butts are then taken outside and opened to allow flowering--the
development of a natural yeast film on the surface. After 12 to 18 months the
butts are taken back inside and added to a solera, a system of butts of a
particular style used over a number of years to keep the quality consistent. All
Sherries are blended. Due to the addition of the spirit and evaporation,
sherries will be higher in alcohol than normal table wines, often 17-20%.
Pedro Ximénez is treated differently.
The sweet grapes are left to dry until almost raisin-like. The must is added to
butts with brandy and go into their own soleras.
