Recommend nice bottle of sherry

yogalady

Hi there

I want to buy a friend who likes Sherry a bottle as a gift. Something maybe around the 20/30 euro mark. Nothing more expensive. I dont drink myself so I would really appreciate some recommendations

Many thanks

I don't drink it myself, keep reading it's a great pairing for food and that there's more to sherry than A Winters Tale!

Some recommendations here...

I love sherry and the diversity available. I spent a few days in Jerez and Sanlucar last year and I loved it all.

Do you know if they like any particular sherry style?

See if you can get a bottle of Tio Pepe en Rama. It’s a yearly release and a bit of an event in the sherry calendar. Lustau is a high quality sherry producer and the bigger O’Briens tend to carry a good selection of their bottles.

If you like dry white wine then La Guita manzanilla. If you like sweet stuff, grab a bottle of pedro ximénez Romate’s ‘Cardenal Cisneros'.
