Expert Opinion

Selected as one of 'Jancis's underpriced picks'

Background

History

Barbadillo is a 100% Spanish family owned business based in Sanlucar de Barrameda since 1821, that effortlessly brings together tradition and modernity. Barbadillo owns 500 hectares of vineyards spread over two estates, Gibalbín and Santa Lucía, both of which are located in the area known as Jerez Superior, or Upper Jerez. The former has an extensive winemaking plant fully equipped with state-of-the-art technology and Barbadillo’s numerous wine cellars are strategically distributed over the outstanding area of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, surrounding the medieval castle of Santiago

Regional info

Jerez Superior is the celebrated land of albariza, a porous, chalky soil characterised by its pale colour that is particularly well suited to the cultivation of vines grown for the production of quality wines. The climate is mild with more than 3,000 hours of sun softened by the cooling influence of the Atlantic. These factors, together with a long winemaking tradition, allow for excellent ripening of the Palomino grapes and ensure a high degree of beaumé (level of sweetness) and moderate acidity.

Wholeheartedly agree with the first reviewer. First rate fino at a bargain price.

First Rate

Tesco tell you on the label the source of this refined fino sherry. A little research will confirm it is indeed a first rate sherry and remains an absolute bargain not just in the sherry world but also in table wine in general. Drink it as an appetiser before a meal but also try it instead of a white wine with strongly flavoured food such as smoked fish. For me this is the most neglected and underrated drink on the planet!
