Wine of the Week: Osborne Fino Quinta (Spain) $16

Friday August 8, 2008

Osborne is one of the oldest family-owned Sherry producers in Spain, making high quality, consistent wines and Sherries for your tasting pleasure! The Osborne Fino Quinta is a very light, dry Sherry. With an inviting straw-like color and an absorbing almond aroma this fino is very bright and engaging on the palate and enjoys a crisp, invigorating finish. It offers a slight tanginess on the tongue with the catching flavors of green apple and olive, but well tamed with tapas, salty snacks, olives, chips, or sautéed artichokes with garlic. Serve well-chilled as an apéritif, or enjoy its food-friendly versatility and keep it going strong throughout a meal of sliced ham, shellfish, sushi or fried food splurges. At $16 a pop this Fino is perfect for end of summer get togethers!
