Sherry week / Finland / Helsinki
International Sherry Week is celebrated in early November, from 2 to 8 November.
We’ll be joining in the celebrations by tasting a variety of sherries and learning more about how they’re made and the different styles (including Fino, Manzanilla, Amontillado, Oloroso and PX).
The ageing process plays a major role in determining a sherry’s style, and during the evening you’ll learn about the Solera system and Flor yeast.
Light Spanish snacks will be served alongside the sherries. Sherry is one of the world’s most versatile and highly regarded wine styles, yet for many, its unique flavour profile remains to be discovered. In this tasting, we’ll delve into sherry’s fascinating history, production methods and diverse styles. Over the course of the evening, we’ll taste a range of sherries, from crisp, dry Finos and Manzanillas to full-bodied Olorosos and deliciously sweet dessert-style wines. At the same time, you’ll learn how the unique flor yeast layer, the Solera system and the Andalusian climate give sherry its distinctive character.
This event is suitable for everyone.
The minimum age for attendance is 18.
