Unlike a fino, it ages oxidatively from the start, in contact with oxygen and with no flor covering, and spends at least five years in solera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Oloroso Sherry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABV: 18%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape: Palomino Fino\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Jerez, Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAgeing: Oxidative, at least 5 years in solera, American oak casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1781 by Juan Sanchez de la Torre, Sanchez Romate is one of the oldest bodegas in Spain and one of the few Jerez houses still under independent family ownership. The bodega owns vineyards on the celebrated albariza soils of Jerez and ages its wines in traditional cellars in the centre of the city. This Oloroso comes from the classic Romate range: fortified Palomino wine aged through the criaderas y soleras system in American oak casks, breathing oxygen the whole way, which is what gives oloroso its depth, body and nutty richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright old gold to mahogany in the glass, with a deep, fragrant aroma. The palate is dry and full-bodied, layered with oak and nut flavours and hints of almond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServe between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius in a white wine glass, following the bodega's own guidance. It is a natural match for aged cheese, nuts, meats and consomme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between oloroso and fino sherry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fino ages under a layer of flor yeast, protected from oxygen, and stays pale and light. An oloroso is fortified so that no flor forms, and it ages oxidatively instead, becoming darker, fuller-bodied and nuttier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Romate Oloroso dry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Despite its rich, full-bodied character, this is a dry sherry, with oak and nut flavours rather than sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat food pairs with oloroso sherry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAged cheese, nuts, meats and consomme are the bodega's recommended pairings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow strong is this sherry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is bottled at 18% ABV, at the fuller end of the sherry range, in a 750mL bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bodega Sanchez Romate Oloroso Sherry is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Bodega Sanchez Romate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67847348617259,"sku":"DM17286L","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1277\/3667\/files\/bodega-sanchez-romate-oloroso-sherry_15e999f2-bdd6-4b0d-a36b-c72a86942cce.jpg?v=1792012219","url":"https:\/\/www.delmesaliquor.com\/products\/bodega-sanchez-romate-oloroso-sherry","provider":"Del Mesa Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
