The wine region of Cádiz
Andalusian IGP around Jerez, Sanlúcar and Chiclana, mild Atlantic-influenced climate. Star soils: albariza (white chalky marl) and coastal sands. Still wines beyond Sherry. Whites: dry Palomino (apple, citrus, almond, salty iodine), floral Moscatel (grape, flowers), ample Pedro Ximénez, taut Chardonnay.
The wine region of Andalousie
Dry, sun-baked southern Spain, world cradle of fortified and oxidative wines. Sherry from Jerez is the signature: Palomino Fino under a veil of flor yields lively, saline Fino with signature notes of almond, yeast, green apple and a sharp iodine edge; more maritime Manzanilla (Sanlúcar); unveiled Oloroso in grand oxidation (walnut, caramel, tobacco). Pedro Ximénez from Montilla-Moriles: intense dark sweet (fig, raisin, coffee, molasses). Also muscat Málaga.
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
