Production:

Sherry Fino Seco San Patricio is made from Palomino grapes. Grapes aged under the bloom of yeast that protect the Sherry from oxygen and produce a unique mineral flavor in the final Sherry. Sherry is made from grapes harvested in the Jeres district of Spain. After the alcoholic fermentation, alcohol is added and the strength of the wine increases. As a starting point, all Sherry is dry, but sweetness is added later. However, this Fino is completely dry.

As a starting point when buying sherry, you can choose between:
Fine: Crispy and a good companion for tapas.
Amontillado: Good as an aperitif or light meat
Oloroso: Full-bodied version with a slight sweetness and good for soup.
Cream: Soft and rich companion for desserts.

Sherry House Garvey:

All Sherry comes from the south of Spain, in the area called Jerez. One of the world's largest and most complex wines, which is Sherry, is produced here. The majority is made from the relatively neutral Palomino grape, with most of the flavor complexity coming from the unique aging methods used to make the different types of Sherry.

Garvey is one of the oldest houses in the area, founded as far back as 1780 by William Garvey, an Irish aristocrat. He quickly made Garvey one of the leading producers in the area and despite changing ownership, Garvey is still one of the leading bodegas in the area.
