Tres Coronas Oro Dulce
17% ABV | 1L | Sweet golden sherry-style wine (Tipo Jerez) — Tres Coronas Oro Dulce is Mexico's classic sweet sherry-style wine: a golden (Oro), sweet (Dulce) fortified-style wine in the Jerez tradition, made from grape wine with cane and grain spirits, natural flavor, and caramel color. The distributor calls it #1 in Mexico in its category — a staple for sipping, for mixing into cocktails and punches, and for cooking. Contains sulfites. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
Oro Dulce pours amber-gold with the nutty, caramelized character sherry lovers expect — dried fruit, brown sugar, and toasted nuts — at a gentle 17% ABV that makes it an easy after-dinner pour or a rich cocktail ingredient. Among dessert and fortified wines, it's the bottle with a cult following in Mexican-American households: the one abuela cooked with and the one behind countless holiday punches.
