La Paquera de Jerez (imagen tristeyazul) |
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.

Flamenco!
Any aficionado of Sherry is drinking a wine from Andalucia, the home of Flamenco. This ancient, exciting and moving music is, perhaps slightly alien to non Spanish people, but its sheer depth and passion will leave nobody unimpressed. Jerez itself is the home of the Buleria style. I am a massive flamenco fan, and urge you to watch a recently broadcast BBC programme about it. You can find it on BBC i Player by searching for "Flamenco: Gypsy Soul". Pour a glass of Sherry and watch!
