About Díez Mérito

Bodegas y Viñedos Díez-Mérito is one of Jerez's classic sherry houses, known for having received top scores from the renowned American wine critic Robert Parker. For newcomers, sherry from Díez-Mérito is a solid entry point into Jerez's broad stylistic range, from dry Fino to sweet Pedro Ximénez; for collectors, the house's critically acclaimed bottles are a rare case of sherry, an often overlooked category, receiving the same recognition as the world's finest wines.

History & Background

Jerez's sherry tradition stretches back several hundred years, to a time when the town's bodegas exported wine across Europe via the port of Cadiz. Díez-Mérito is part of this long tradition and has, over the years, built up a substantial reserve of soleras, the tiered cask system in which older and younger sherry are continuously blended. The house's international reputation was firmly cemented when several of its bottles received praise and top scores from Robert Parker.

Production & Style

The sherry is made from Palomino and Pedro Ximénez grapes and matured using the solera system, blending younger and older vintages continuously.

Signature Style

Nutty, Dry, Complex
The flavour is complex and nutty, ranging from dry to sweet depending on the style.
