Made from Pedro Ximénez grapes that dry in the sun, this wine has a dark mahogany color, sweet scents of raisins and nuts and sweet raisin, burnt sugar flavors and a finish that's remarkably clean for such a sweet wine; owned by the Caballero Group that also owns DOMECQ, Osborne is a historic Sherry producer with a wide range of quality Sherries, and the black bull symbol of Osborne is famous throughout Spain.
Serve at 12℃; great as an after-dinner drink by itself but also lovely with vanilla ice cream with half poured over the ice cream or with dried fruits or cookies.
Average time of six years in American oak.
Drink now or within 3 years.
