El Maestro Sierra’s Cream is a blend of the house’s dry Oloroso with approximately thirty percent Pedro Ximénez, aged together in old American oak to allow the components to integrate before bottling. It is the sweetest wine in the standard range, made for those who want the character of El Maestro Sierra’s oxidative wines with added richness and sweetness.
The colour is a deep amber-brown. The nose offers dried fig, dark caramel, walnut and a sweet, raisined Pedro Ximénez note that gives the wine an approachable, dessert-like character. The palate is rich and moderately sweet, with the dry Oloroso backbone just visible beneath the Pedro Ximénez sweetness. Good natural acidity prevents the finish from becoming heavy. A well-made, honest Cream Sherry from a house not known for compromise.
