Sherry Fino Corrales Pago Balbaína 2024 (Peter Sisseck)

Sherry Fino Corrales Pago Balbaína 2024 is a compelling single-vineyard Fino that reflects Peter Sisseck’s ambitious vision for Sherry: precise, terroir-driven, and deeply rooted in Jerez tradition. Made from Palomino grapes grown on the coastal Pago Balbaína, this en rama bottling captures the freshness and tension of flor-aged wine at its most expressive, while also marking an important chapter in the revival of site-specific Sherry.

Makuprofiili
Pale straw in the glass, it opens with lifted, complex aromas of hay, green olives, almonds, fresh apple, subtle apricot, celery, wet chalk, and yeasty flor character. There is a savory, almost maritime edge that gives the wine immediate charm and depth. On the palate, it is very dry yet surprisingly rounded and creamy in texture, with a vibrant mineral core and a distinctly saline impression that recalls sea spray. Fine bitterness, delicate herbs, and a persistent, warming finish add serious structure. Thanks to its en rama bottling and single-vineyard focus, it should continue to evolve beautifully in bottle over the next few years.

Viininvalmistus
The wine comes from Viña Corrales in Pago Balbaína, a coastal site in Jerez planted with 25- to 40-year-old Palomino vines. The proximity to the Atlantic and the region’s famed albariza soils contribute to the wine’s freshness, salinity, and refined mineral character. Harvesting is done with care to preserve the quality of the fruit, and the wine is aged under flor in a traditional solera system before being bottled unfiltered and unfined as an en rama release, with only one bottling each spring while the flor is most active.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Serve lightly chilled at around 10-13°C, ideally in a generous white-wine glass to allow the aromas to open up. This Fino pairs beautifully with jamón ibérico, olives, anchovies, salted almonds, seafood, sushi, grilled prawns, and manchego, as well as more delicate dishes with herbs or citrus. Decanting is not necessary, but a short time in the glass can help reveal its layered aromas.

Tuottaja
This bottling comes from Peter Sisseck’s much-discussed Sherry project in Jerez, created in collaboration with Carlos del Río González-Gordon and built around a small bodega and historic vineyard holdings. Though still a relatively young undertaking, it has already drawn considerable attention for its focus on single-vineyard expression and its role in rethinking how Sherry can be presented and appreciated. The project is widely seen as part of a broader movement toward quality-driven, terroir-focused Sherry in the region.
