W & J Graham's Fine Tawny Port
The Grahams Tawny Ports rival their vintages Ports by always exceeding minimum standards for age and quality of the material. This Tawny shows surprising qualities of age and sheer quality of the blend. It has rancio, toffee and the classic cherry skin/nutty combo of Portuguese Port. The palate is generous, showing sweetness but cleverly staying just shy of sticky, with a fine drying, tingling finish.

Fruit sourced from the Riverina, New South Wales, Australia.
Fernando de Castilla Classic Amontillado Sherry
Made from Palomino Fino grapes grown on chalky 'albariza' soils characteristic of Jerez, the grapes are pressed and fermented in stainless steel before fortification. The wine is first biologically-aged under flor yeast and then aged oxidatively, both in American oak barrels within a traditional solera system. The wine is around 7 years old on average, as soleras do not produce wines of a singular age due to continuous fractional blending over many years. Amber in colour, aromatic on the nose and soft notes of hazelnut on the palate. Enjoy in classic and modern cocktails such as the Adonis, Sherry Cobbler, Up-To-Date Cocktail, U.S.S. Wondrich, or Session Manhattan. Try swapping half the amount of vermouth for sherry in classic recipes for an added layer of complexity. About Fernando De Castilla: Bodegas Rey Fernando de Castilla is named after the thirteenth century king, also called "El Santo", who conquered much of western Andalusia. The eponymous king is said to have discovered the exceptional qualities of the soil and climate of the Marco de Jerez and its ability produce wines of exceptional quality. Despite the historical name, the bodega is relatively young in Jerez terms, having been founded in the 1960s by Fernando Andrada-Vanderwilde as Fernando III and then renamed in 1972. The Andrada-Vanderwilde family has been involved in winemaking in the area for two centuries, but Fernando initially focused on producing exceptional brandy before expanding to Pedro Ximénez and sherry vinegar. In 1999 Norwegian-born Jan Pettersen was able to realise his lifelong passion and, together with a group of investors, bought the bodega to produce high-end sherry.
