Appellation: Jerez

Leaena Cream Sherry from Bodegas Viuda de Manjón is a richly expressive sweet wine that embodies the elegance of traditional Jerez craftsmanship. This Cream Sherry is a blend of oxidatively aged Oloroso and naturally sweet Pedro Ximénez, sourced from the esteemed Balbaína and Miraflores vineyards. Aged for an average of 9 years in the solera system, it offers a harmonious balance of depth and sweetness.

In the glass, it displays a deep mahogany hue with amber highlights. The nose reveals inviting aromas of toasted nuts, toffee, and dried fruits. On the palate, it is velvety and luscious, featuring flavors of caramel, prunes, and a touch of citrus zest, culminating in a long, elegant finish.

Food Pairings:

  • Blue Cheeses: The wine's sweetness complements the bold flavors of cheeses like Roquefort or Stilton.

  • Foie Gras: Its richness pairs well with the creamy texture of foie gras.

  • Nut-Based Desserts: Enhances desserts featuring almonds or hazelnuts, such as turrón or nut tarts.

  • Chocolate Desserts: Complements the deep flavors of chocolate cakes or mousses.

  • Fruit-Based Desserts: Pairs beautifully with poached pears or apple tarts.

  • As an Aperitif: Serve over ice with a slice of orange for a refreshing start to a meal.

Serve slightly chilled at 10–12°C to fully appreciate its complexity. Leaena Cream Sherry is a versatile choice for those seeking a premium Spanish sweet wine that bridges tradition and indulgence.
