Brandy or sherry?
Basically, they are one and the same product. The small but very subtle difference that allows a brandy to be called sherry lies in its origin. If it is a sherry, it will always come from the province of Cadiz in Andalusia, specifically between the triangle of cities Jerez de la Frontera, Sanlucar de Barramenda and Puerto de Santa Maria. Only brandies produced here can officially bear this name. Another special feature of sherry is the grape variety used. Only three special varieties may be used for this: Palomino, Pedro Ximenez and Moscatel.
Sherry Lacave Oloroso
There is a crucial difference in the preparation of the Oloroso variant compared to, for example, the Fino variant. While the Fino has the so-called flor layer, a foam-like layer that forms during the fermentation process due to the added yeast and thus prevents contact with air, this is deliberately omitted from the strong Oloroso. The aim here is to allow oxidation with oxygen as much as possible in order to increase the formation of acid.
Distinctive taste
Sherry Lacave Oloroso surprisingly impresses with a finely balanced combination of softness and a youthful touch. The aroma is dominated by fruity dried fruit notes. A certain tartness comes from the walnuts. The two distinctive aromas are also retained in the taste, complemented by further fruity notes of apple.
It is ideal for beginners, as the aftertaste is comparatively light and smooth and not too overwhelming.
