Port of Leith Oloroso Sherry - 75cl, 17.5% vol.
Port of Leith Oloroso Sherry is a rich and complex fortified wine sourced from Bodegas Baron, a 480-year-old producer with a forward-thinking approach. This exceptional Oloroso is used to season oak casks in SanlĂșcar de Barrameda, located in the heart of Jerez in Southwest Spain, before being shipped to Scotland for whisky maturation. Itâs a beautiful example of how traditional craftsmanship and modern techniques come together to create a truly remarkable product.
Fortified to a strength of 17.5%, Oloroso sherry is crafted to halt the development of flor, the natural yeast layer that forms on the surface of some wines. By exposing the wine to the air, Oloroso develops a heavier, more structured profile, resulting in a wine with great depth and complexity. This process yields a sherry thatâs bursting with rich, dried fruit flavours, intricate oak notes, and a balanced sweetness, rounded off by subtle hints of spice.
The result is a sherry that offers a multifaceted drinking experience. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of dishes, its rich and indulgent profile will elevate any occasion. Its versatility makes it perfect for sipping neat or using as an ingredient to enhance the depth of your favourite cocktails.
Port of Leith Oloroso Sherry is a beautiful expression of tradition, time, and craftsmanshipâan indulgent experience perfect for both connoisseurs and those discovering the world of sherry for the first time.
