Pale dry sherry, often referred to as "fino" sherry, is a type of fortified wine produced in the Jerez region of Spain. It is characterized by its light color, delicate flavor, and crisp, dry finish, achieved through a unique aging process under a layer of yeast called "flor." This protective layer prevents oxidation, allowing the wine to develop fresh, nutty, and sometimes saline notes. Pale dry sherry is typically enjoyed chilled and pairs well with a variety of tapas and seafood dishes.
