More questions
From the heart of the Jerez region in Spain, the Iberia Cream Reserve by Sherry Romate stands out as an extraordinarily rich and velvety sweet wine. This Cream Sherry is a harmonious blend of Palomino and Pedro Ximénez grapes, aged using the traditional solera method. Its maturation occurs in oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop a complex array of aromas and flavors.
The color is an inviting dark amber, with golden highlights that shine in the light. On the nose, Iberia Cream Reserve offers an intense bouquet, with scents of candied fruit, raisins, and touches of molasses, alongside nuances of almond and caramel. On the palate, it feels enveloping, almost creamy, with sweetness balanced by a light acidity that enhances its freshness and adds complexity. Flavors of figs, dates, and milk chocolate blend with notes of coffee and sweet spices, creating a long and pleasantly persistent finish.
This Sherry is excellent to enjoy as an aperitif or as a complement to sweet dishes, particularly chocolate cakes or cream pastries. It is also surprising when paired with blue cheeses or foie gras.
Its complexity and elegance make the Iberia Cream Reserve by Sherry Romate an excellent choice for special occasions or as a gift for lovers of sweet wines rich in character. A true gem from Jerez that carries with it centuries of wine-making tradition.

The story
Founded in 1781 by Juan Sánchez de la Torre in alliance with the Romate family, Sánchez Romate is one of the few Jerez companies still in the hands of the same family after more than two centuries. Over its history the house has developed a range of Jerez wines (Fino, Amontillado, Oloroso, Pedro Ximénez, Moscatel) and brandies; the Cardenal Mendoza brandy, created at the end of the 19th century, is one of its best-known products. The bodega has also received historical recognition as an official supplier to institutions (historical mentions of supplies to foreign entities at the beginning of the 20th century) and preserves traditional soleras for its reserves.
Distillation
For the brandy: production of holandas by traditional copper pot-still distillation and subsequent ageing according to the solera system; the typical method of Brandy de Jerez.
Ageing
Criaderas and solera system; finishing in American oak casks; biological ageing under a layer of flor for Fino/Manzanilla and oxidative ageing for Oloroso/Amontillado; some sweet reserves and brandies finished in casks previously seasoned with Oloroso or Pedro Ximénez.
