Harveys Bristol Cream Sherry (2024)

Product Information

Time to re-evaluate the classic - now with 100% more cool. Seriously, this blended sherry serves up a delicious pale mahogany, raisiny, festive-spiced wine wrapped in a slightly oaky, maple-syrup lusciousness. Serve over crushed ice with a slice.

More about this product;

After far, far too long in the murky shadows of uncooldom, archetypal sherries like this big, bold and beautiful Bristol Cream are coming out of the closet. Yes, loud and proud, this is an out-and-out cream sherry: that's right, a sherry on the sweet side of medium, get over it fella. Okay, we might be over-egging it a little, but this is a wine in need of serious re-evaluation. It's way more complex than you might suspect or imagine, with layers of poached apples, treacle, raisin and hints of oak and Christmas spice - and chuck it in a glass of crushed ice with a slice or two of orange and it's unrecognisable. It might even be cool, and it's certainly delicious. Go on, we dare you.

Further Description

Sherry trade between England and Jerez has existed since the 1100s. Harveys was founded in 1796 in the city of Bristol, England. At that time sherry was transported by ship in oak casks and then blended in Bristol.

Harveys Bristol Cream was created in the company’s cellars in the 1880s by John Harvey II and his brother Edward. An aristocratic lady who was visiting the cellars was sampling Harveys Bristol Milk. She was asked to try the new, finer and richer blend. “If that is Milk, then this must be Cream” she declared on tasting the new blend, and Bristol Cream it has been ever since.

From 1970 onwards Harveys began investing heavily in the region of Jerez, purchasing top quality vineyards and bodegas and building a bottling plant including the latest technology. All production and distribution of sherry for world markets is now centred in Jerez. Only wine produced in the area of Jerez, southern Spain can be called sherry.
