barrel showing flor developmentWhat better way to celebration all the wonderful and weird things we do here at cork than with a seminar dedicated to tasting the full array of Spanish sherry.  From bone dry and salty to rich, sweet and thick, Holly Wing of DeMaison Selections will engage and mesmerize you with her incredible knowledge about this region and the small, artisinal producers her company has introduced to American wine lovers.
Please join Holly on Wednesday, May 9th as she pours 7 different types of sherry including Manzanilla, Fino, Amontillado, Palo Cortado, Oloroso, Moscatel, & Pedro Ximenez (better known as PX).  These come from 5 Almacenista estates, so named for being original stock holders, an historic milestone in this tiny region.

Tonight’s class requires reservations, so if you’d like to come and learn about Sherry, please call us at 503.281.2675 after 11am to reserve a space.

You will enjoy the range of wines and figuring out if you prefer your sherries to be bone dry, medium, on the sweeter side, or all of the above!
