A blog and review on all things Sherry. It is about tasting, enjoyment and learning more about the World’s Finest Wine. "Sherry is a thoroughbred" as Javier Hidalgo rightly puts it. Included are the amazing local Brandies and the remarkably good table wines also produced in the province of Cádiz.

23.1.13 Top Penin points for Sherry
The top Spanish wine guide, the Guia Penin, has begun the marathon series of tastings for
the next edition at the Consejo Regulador in Jerez. By the end of the trip,
they will have tasted some 10,000 wines. After tasting well over 200 Sherries,
the team declared that the standard was very high with marks averaging over 90
points out of 100. In the last edition (2013), wines from the whole of Spain except
Sherry managed an average score of 87.5, while Sherry managed an average score
of 91.
