Candela Cream, Jerez DO.
Interesting Facts
Candela" Cream is exactly the drink you want to enjoy in a cozy armchair under a warm blanket, during a pleasant friendly conversation or even alone with an interesting book. It is the best combination of old Oloroso sherry (85%) and sweet Pedro Ximenez sherry (15%). Grapes from two different areas are used to make these sherries. The first is Monteguilillo, whose lands have an ideal composition for growing Palomino grapes. The second is Las Cruces with sandy soils, which gives an amazing harvest of Muscat and Pedro Ximenez varieties. Being in oak barrels for 8 long years, Candela" Cream sherry acquires a velvety tonic taste, with a pleasant sweetness and refreshing acidity. This only confirms the statement that sherry is the real "king of aperitifs".
