It's been 11 years since we discussed Sherry, so it's time to do a refreshed show. This time, Sherry is much more mainstream and we're revisiting this fascinating wine that has so much history, and has experienced a renaissance in recent times.

We discuss:

  • Where Sherry is and its defining terroir, including the terroir of the bodegas
  • The grapes of Sherry
  • The 3000 year history of the region
  • Winemaking and the complex system of criaderas, soleras, and fractional blending
  • The biologically aged wines (under flor): Fino and Manzanilla

Part 2 will include all the other types of Sherries from sweet to the numerous oxidative styles.
