Description
A bone-dry sherry from the extremely well-regarded house of Hidalgo, which is in the coastal town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda. This pale-coloured, light-bodied wine seems to pick up its notable salty tang from the onshore sea breezes there. It’s delicious with seafood or white meats as well as hard-to-match foods such as anchovies.
