Mark it in your calendar! The fourth International Sherry Week is coming up soon, and as always, I’ll be offering my Sherry & Tapas Tours for anyone who would like to learn more about these fabulous wines. You’ll be able to see all the Sherry Week events on the website as they are registered, so you can check to see what’s happening in your part of the world.
Also something very cool this year – you can win an exclusive place at the highly coveted Certified Sherry Educator course in 2018, which was truly one of the most special experiences of my life.

Good times!
