Sherry Vinegar - Styles

Styles

The style of sherry vinegar depends mainly on the grape variety used to produce the wine it is made from.

  • Palomino: Most sherry vinegar is produced from wines which were made from the Palomino grape. The wine being used to produce the vinegar can be young wine or can be a wine which has already aged.
  • al Pedro Ximénez: Wines produced from the Pedro Ximénez grape are usually sweet, often very sweet, and consequently the vinegars produced from these wines are usually sweeter than other sherry vinegars or at the very least have a sweet raisin nose. Sometimes Palomino vinegars are sweetened with the addition of a small amount of Pedro Ximénez wine (residual alcohol can not be more than 3%).
  • Moscatel: Small amounts of sherry vinegar are produced from the Moscatel grape.
