    A "Cabeceo" of precious information, very complex in the mind (I "Aserpiado" my brain with devotion), with an unforgettable ("Fino") feeling in the heart, after successfully graduation. Thank you so much!

    I truly enjoyed the Advanced Course of Jerez-Xérès-Sherry y Manzanilla Sanlúcar de Barrameda DO. As a small suggestion, I believe it could be interesting to go a little deeper into the fascinating topic of how Palo Cortado is created. This article, in my opinion, offers valuable insights that help shed light on the subject: https://www.sherrynotes.com/2015/background/palo-cortado-mystery/

    A fantastic course. I very much enjoyed it and I learnt a lot. I would loved to have learned a bit more about the pagos and individual vineyard sites; It seems to be a profitable direction for sherry to go. I would also have liked to learn a bit more about the new regulations which seem to be quite revolutionary. The top down direction that producers are going in will, I believe, make Sherry a big deal again. I am currently reading César Saldaña's brilliant book which I would recommend to everyone. It's slow progress only because I'm reading it in Spanish.

    To me, this Advanced course of Jerez is really comprehensive and provides a lot of useful information, to a professional standard. Thanks to Consejo Regulador de las Denominaciones de Origen “Jerez-Xérès-Sherry” - “Manzanilla-Sanlúcar de Barrameda” - “Vinagre de Jerez”, greatly appreciated.

    "Drying: Once the staves have been cut, they are left to dry in the fresh air during approximately two months to reduce the moisture content and coarseness of the wood. This process seasons the wood, softening its aromas and reducing the moisture content to around 12 -15%." Must be a mistake. As I know, seasoning takes at least 2-3 years, no months!

  • Christine Lyons

    The description (colour, aromas, tasting notes, food pairings) and technical data for Moscatel and Dulces are the same slides. Is that correct? Could someone look into that?

    Great course, learned a lot and enjoyed a glass or two as I progressed. Like many others, I was floored by the test in section 9 - daft answers and not the ones the learning leads you too. I ony eventually passed by working my way through all the possible combinations of answers. Tedious, but I wasn't going to be beaten at the last !

    The Spanish term for a small tasting glass for wine in general is: COPITA; The typical small sherry glass with tulip-shaped goblet is called CATAVINO; The special glass for the sherry type Manzanilla is called Caña! The word means bamboo and is probably derived from the special Venencia (scoop cup) used here, whose stem is made of this wood (instead of whalebone or silver as in Jerez). It is possible that the term refers to the tavern custom "cantar a las cañas (de vino)", which means "singing to the wine glasses". The Caña is also a Spanish song form (Palo) of flamenco.....
