Argueso Sherry Vinegar
AUTHENTIC SHERRY VINEGAR FROM SANLUCAR
From historic sherry producer founded in 1822
Extensive oak aging in the traditional 'solera' system adds layers of flavour
Use to dress salads, soups, sauces and dressings
Description
Argüeso sherry vinegar has a bright, balanced flavour that brings out the best in your salads, gazpacho and other dishes. Extensive oak aging in the traditional ‘solera’ system adds layers of nuance and flavour not found in other vinegars. This sherry vinegar has a light colour and a refreshing acidity with very little sweetness – this is a dry vinegar.
Bodegas Argüeso is a historic Sherry producer reborn and revived. Located in coastal Sanlucar de Barrameda, it 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. Shortly after, he acquired an old solera from the bodega San José in Santo Domingo, with an estimated age of over 250 years.
In 2016, Argüeso was acquired by Bodegas Yuste, with a view to increasing the reputation of the wines. They have invested heavily in Argüeso, including the employment of their own team of in-house coopers who have been tasked with repairing and upgrading all the barrels within the company as it returns to its former glory. Every week owner Francisco Yuste tastes from each barrel to ensure that his are among the finest sherry wines and vinegars in Spain.
The best way to serve this excellent vinegar is paired with a top-quality extra virgin olive oil on a fresh salad or grilled vegetables. It is a key ingredient for making great gazpacho and is great for cooked dishes as well.
How to cook with Argueso Sherry Vinegar
Our favourite way to prepare this incredible pork is to season with salt and pepper and grill or sear the presa, then cook at medium high heat until done. The centre of the steak should still be pink. This cut has less fat than other types of Iberico pork, so be careful not to overcook. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then cut thin slices to best enjoy the flavour.

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.
