With balanced fruit acidity, the Croft Original Pale Cream Sherry flatters with a velvety palate feel without lacking freshness. Sophisticated in character, sweet and mellow in flavour, Croft Sherry is a classic drink that tucks you into a warm bed of nostalgia. This single varietal Spanish wine presents wonderfully expressive notes of acacia, cherry blossom, apple and quince in the glass. While we have taken care in preparing this summary and believe it is accurate, it is not a substitute for your reading the product packaging and label prior to use. All sherry is fortified – a process which increases the alcohol content – and aged in oak casks for a minimum of two years, but often for much longer.Many other wineries imitated it, adding their own pale creams to their offer, but none of them ever managed to beat Croft Original. Once the grapes are harvested, sherry production starts life like any white wine – with the grapes pressed and fermented. Croft sherries combine the depth and sweet finish of a Cream with the crisp features of a quality Fino. While Cream is a term used to describe a sweet style of sherry, Pale Cream – as the name suggests – is defined by its delicate, pale colour.
