Sherry vinegar from 100% Palomino from wine originally intended for Palomino sherry. The production process that turns wine into vinegar takes place in two stages: bacteria in the sherry casks ensure that the alcohol is converted into acetic acid, and then this process is taken further by ageing the wine oxidatively. This sherry has spent at least 30 years in 500 litre, American oak sherry barrels in a traditional solera system. The sherry vinegar ends up with an acidity level of 9,5%. A pouring spout is included with this sherry vinegar. Clear and dark brown colour with amber tinges. Complex aromas of light, sharp, acetic acid, winey with wood tones. A harmony of taste, elegant and smooth in the mouth, concentrated and bold. Sherry vinegar is very versatile. Just a few drops provide sauces, stews and fish dishes with depth, but it is also delicious in a vinaigrette or as a drizzle on soup or gazpacho.
