Crisp, dry and with a hint of sea air - Fino Sherry is one of Jerez's most demanding, but also most rewarding, styles.

Expert's Description

This Fino takes the young, crisp sherry style to the next level. Fino ages under a protective layer of yeast - flor - that shields the wine from oxygen and gives it its characteristic sharp, dry profile.
