Some of the most exciting whiskies of the moment are sherry cask aged, full of fruit cake and spice, but while these drams surge ahead the sherries behind them remain something of a mystery. These can be some of the most complex and surprising of wines with flavours that can be astounding.
On 12 June at our Great Portland Street shop, Dawn Davies MW will be joined Federico Sanchez-Pece Salmeron from Lustau for a tasting of sherry and sherry-cask aged spirits.
The quality of modern sherry has never been better with Lustau leading the way we are seeing older and more concentrated expressions as well as renewed vitality in more youthful releases. This is a chance to taste the journey from the soils of Andalusia and the bodegas of Jerez to the low hills and wild glens of Scotland and beyond.
This will be a sit-down masterclass with a curated range of wines and spirits to taste.

The Whisky Exchange
This June, The Whisky Exchange is hosting a wine festival: The Wine Exchange. While whisky is in our name and is our first love, we are passionate about the full spectrum of drinks and want to celebrate the brilliant wines that we list.
Dawn Davies, Master of Wine and The Whisky Exchange’s buying director, has curated a series of events to delve into the range, explore some of the most interesting topics in wine and open up the wide world of wine to as many people as we can. On top of that we will also be opening a collection of wines throughout the month in our central London stores for you to discover.
We know that wine can be intimidating. There are grapes, countries, climates, appellations d’origine contrôlée, oak, vintages and so much more that seems to confuse and occlude rather than to explain and engage. The aim of this festival is that with every bottle we open, we open up the world of wine to more people.
All of our events have education at their heart, and we believe that the best way to learn about wine, whisky or any other drink, is by tasting alongside the passionate people who make these brilliant bottles.
As Davies herself says: “ You knew we were masters of whisky, but did you know we were masters of wine?”
