Description
Grape Variety
100% Palomino Fino
Wine Tasting
Made from Palomino Fino grapes grown around Jerez. Grapes which are identified as having a delicate and floral character are selected for Fino wines. Once the base wines have been made, they are fortified and aged under the flor de velo in oak barrels.
The solera is located in Miraflores on the southern edge of Sanlucar, a few hundred yards from the coast.
We have worked with Argueso to create a specific blend which combines some of the weight of a classic Jerez Fino, with some of the delicacy and salinity of a Manzanilla from Sanlucar.
Pear, quince and almond on the nose. Real depth and texture for a fino, with good body and a refreshing hint of sea air on the fine, lingering finish.
Food Pairing
Ideal as an aperitif with jam on, tapas or a gazpacho.
How to cook with Argueso 1822 Fino
The flavoured ham oil coats the clams beautifully and acts as a seasoning agent, whilst the fino sherry brings the whole dish to life. I love cooking with sherry and this is a simple example of how well sherry tastes in sauces. You can use dark sherries such as amontillado and oloroso on roasted meats, dark gravy sauces and marinades whilst fino and manzanilla sherries work well with seafood and creamy sauces.

Bodegas Argüeso
Bodegas Argüeso was founded by León de Argüeso y Argüeso in 1822. Originally from Burgos in the North of Spain, he settled in Sanlúcar, where he opened a small grocery store called Almacén del Reloj. A couple of years later he acquired some old barrels and the cellar San Jose in the alley of Santo Domingo, whose age is estimated at more than 250 years. In 2016 Argüeso was taken over by Bodegas Yuste who also owns Bodega Miraflores and the former Pedro Romero.
