Fresh from not one, but two recent trips to the place that Paul’s heart firmly resides, join him on Friday 7th November to talk about all things sherry and celebrate Fourth and Church’s favourite time of the year, International Sherry Week!
Sherry Week is the largest annual festival of Sherry Wines in the world and returns for the 12th time on 3-9 November in over 30 countries.
Every year, the vibrant global Sherry community comes together for one week of gastronomical and cultural events that highlight the fortified wine’s versatility and variety, from the dry crispness of Fino to the velvety, rich sweetness of Cream. If you’ve spent more than five minutes talking to the team I’m sure you’ll have heard us talk about all of the virtues of sherry!
With a style of sherry to match every type of food, it’s an ideal opportunity to discover the full spectrum and their fascinating ageing process in the multi-barrel Solera and Criadera system.
Since 2014, more than 20,000 events have taken place worldwide and wine-lovers, from seasoned Sherry experts to recent converts, have explored its rich heritage and unique production, from vineyard to cask to pour. And more importantly… indulged in it.
Paul’s second event of the week, a Sherry Masterclass will be hosted in our newly decorated Private Dining Room. The evening will be an intimate affair and a deep dive into some of Paul’s favourite sherries, plus an opportunity to taste some rare beasts from his cellar. There will be five pours with some in depth sherry chat about the production of the wines and some of the characters behind them.
We will of course include a tasty tapa/snack with each glass, but for those of you with an appetite for further snacking there will be our usual menu available, and of course the chance to double back on any of your favourite wines from the session.
An absolute steal at £65 per person for four pours and four wines. Be quick to grab a ticket as there are only 14 spaces available.
