Description
In the years 7 and 8, sherry was incredibly popular in the Netherlands and nowadays most people don't even know what sherry tastes like anymore. That's quite a shame, because sherry is a special wine, almost a natural phenomenon. He develops his specific taste in the cellar. There are two styles of dry sherries, namely fino and oloroso. Fino forms a layer of yeast cells on its wine, the 'flor', which protects the wine against light and air. This means it retains its pale color and fresh taste. Oloros

Extra information
In de jaren 7 en 8 was sherry ongelooflijk populair in Nederland en tegenwoordig weten de meesten niet eens meer hoe sherry smaakt. Dat is best jammer, want sherry is een bijzondere wijn, bijna een natuurverschijnsel. Hij ontwikkelt zijn specifieke smaak in de kelder. Van droge sherry's bestaan twee stijlen, namelijk de fino en oloroso. Fino vormt op zijn wijn een laag gistcellen, de 'flor', die de wijn beschermt tegen licht en lucht. Daardoor behoudt hij zijn bleke kleur en frisse smaak. Oloros
In the 1970s and 1980s sherry was incredibly popular in the Netherlands and today most people don't even know what sherry tastes like anymore. That's a shame, because sherry is a special wine, almost a natural phenomenon. He develops his specific taste in the cellar. There are two styles of dry sherries, fino and oloroso. Fino forms a layer of yeast cells on its wine, the flor, which protects the wine against light and air. As a result, it retains its pale color and fresh taste. Oloroso is a sherry without that flor and turns dark in color and has a nutty, riper taste. Medium sherry is a semi-sweet oloroso and cream is a sweet one.
