Renowned (whisky) bottler Decadent Drinks just released its first Amontillado 1951, a single cask selected from Bodegas Toro Albalá #montilla @decadentdrinks sherrynotes.com/2026/reviews/a…

The S. Roberto Palo Cortado from Bodegas Barbadillo received 100 Parker points last year. We confirm it's totally magnificent #sherry #wine sherrynotes.com/2026/reviews/p…

Amontillado-Fino in the 'Soleras Especiales' series from Bodegas Hidalgo in Jerez: first step in the ageing evolution #sherry

A super tasty version of Matalían, from Bodegas M.Ant. De La Riva - sapidity in a glass #jerez sherrynotes.com/2026/vino-de-p…

Medium Amoroso from Vinos Según Cede, the small bodega of the Guerra family (of Taberna Der Guerrita fame). Part of a Club Contubernio pack and a seriously tasty Medium sherry @ClubContubernio #sherry sherrynotes.com/2024/reviews/c…

Where does the freshness and acidity of an old Oloroso sherry come from, if it starts from low-acidity Palomino grapes? sherrynotes.com/2026/backgroun… #sherry #wine

Valdespino recently launched the 2023 edition of its Viña Macharnudo Alto. A top of the range non-fortified white wine which seems to be getting better each year @valdespinojerez #jerez #wine sherrynotes.com/2024/vino-de-p…

Review: premium Palo Cortado of around 20 years, from León Domecq. Seemingly a new name but previously known as the almacenista Bodegas Vides #sherry sherrynotes.com/2024/reviews/p…

Manzanilla Charito: a high quality wine from Bodegas Emilio Hidalgo, probably a bit older than most others on the market, but lacking a bit of marketing #sherry sherrynotes.com/2025/reviews/m…

The old Moscatel Atlántida from the little known Bodegas Orleans Borbón in Sanlúcar #sherry @ClubContubernio sherrynotes.com/2026/reviews/m…

Sherry history: Fino La Ina from the legendary Pedro Domecq, bottled around 1962 and opened last week... #sherry sherrynotes.com/2026/reviews/f…

Demystifying sherry casks in the whisky industry: one of my favourite subjects to talk about. Here's a write-up of a tasting I hosted for a whisky club the other day #sherrycask sherrynotes.com/2026/backgroun…

Fascinating graph! The composition of wine consumption in the USA. In 1960, more than 75% was dessert or fortified wine; today, that figure is just over 2%. The figure doesn't show the total consumption, but I looked it up: 163M gallon in 1960 and 899M in 2023 #sherry

The Fino En Rama from the Señorío de Callao series of Bodegas León Domecq is very intense (with astringent edges) and ambitiously priced. Check out my review #sherry sherrynotes.com/2025/reviews/f…

A very gastronomic Amontillado Pisador, sourced from the Cooperative Virgen Palomares in Trebujena and bottled by The Wine Bang #sherry @ClubContubernio sherrynotes.com/2025/reviews/a…

Nice to see our Spanish friends on Dutch television. A quick look at the sherry (cask) industry. Cheers Armando! @barbadillo #sherrycask

In Belgium it can still be found.

How can I get them sent to me in Spain? @MiguelCrunia
