Understanding Sherry Part 2 for WSET L3

[@barryevans5232]

Thank you again Jimmy. Sitting sipping the Wine Society's Fino whilst watching I am beginning to understand Sherrry, a new experience for me. Also I now know where Pedro Jimenez comes from, although you description is not much like the bright fruity white we buy from our local supermarket.

:-) Wonderful - it takes some time getting used to, but once you're into Sherry you are hooked!

Hi Jimmy, Thank you for this. Just quickly, the wine added into barrel, are they already fermented through to dryness? How does the flor form? Would it happen in any wine if the barrels weren't topped up? Thanks in advance

In Spain, Poniente only refers to winds coming from the West (as we have a specific name for the winds of each cardinal point), if the wind were to come from the SW, it is not Poniente anymore, but Lebeche

[@WineWithJimmy]

Of course - at coastal areas there are often many winds that affect an area (in Roussillon there are eight winds) - for simplification for WSET L3 we only mention two winds, and if I mentioned SW it was a slip of the tongue. For WSET students - please note you just need to be aware of the Poniente and the Levante.

Hey Jimmy, fantastic lesson and teaching points! However, may I check if the Oloroso Solera systems are also filled to 5/6 their capacities? or are they fully filled? with thanks!

[@moks0moks]

Hello Jimmy. Thank you a lot for your great job and amazing learning portal! I have one question. At the end of the this session you give very good examples of Partial Written Questions. One question is "As a winemaker how would you ensure the flor kept alive and maintained during maturation of the wine". Can I add also the answer "Adding a new wine to ensure the flor gets needed nutrition as the flor consumes alcohol and nutrients constantly during maturation process" or it would be wrong? How do you think?

[@WineWithJimmy]

Yes you are correct, adding younger wine into the solera refreshes the nutrients needed to sustain flor. Well done!
