Louis Martini Cream Sherry

Louis Martini's Cream Sherry is in a class by itself. Produced from palomino grapes, its smooth, agreeable, caramel-like flavor and fine texture win awards in Sherry tastings year after year. Its uniqueness is in its origins. Specially developed by fermenting small batches of wine to the proper sweetness and then stopping fermentation by the addition of brandy, a process called, fortifying, the wines are then aged and blended to make the luscious Cream Sherry. The blending method is similar to the fractional blending method of the Dry Sherries, i.e., small amounts representing many vintages and many batches are blended together. In the case of Martini's Cream sherry, the Solera dates back to 1936. These wines are a labor of love, a special pursuit of Louis P. Martini. They are among the finest of California Sherries.
