In 1905 the Dry Sack brand was launched by Alexander Williams and Arthur Humbert in Jerez, Spain. It is a unique blend of Oloroso (which gives full body and rich aromas), Amontillado (giving dryness) and Pedro Ximenez (giving softness and deep coloring). The result is a medium-dry style, with an attractive nuttiness on both the nose and palate - it is deeply fragrant with a unique lingering finish. In Spain, a glass of chilled sherry remains a popular aperitif because it is the least likely to interfere with what follows. It is also wonderful after-dinner, on the rocks, or neat, served with nuts and cheeses.

Charming, with a frankly off-dry feel to the peach, persimmon and flan flavors. Shows a light sesame accent through the open-knit finish. Drink now. 87,000 cases made.

The NV Dry Sack Medium is produced with Palomino and some Pedro Ximénez grapes, but with care not to mark the wine with a lot of PX character. It's bottled with an average age of seven years and 29 grams of residual sugar. This is one of the better-known brands, and it has an Oloroso character but it's still quite elegant, not too sweet, with just a touch that would make it quite approachable as an aperitif, with cheese and even as part of cocktails.
