Sherry Medium Dry - Sandeman

About the wine

It all began in 1790 when the 25-year-old son of a Scottish wealthy carpenter asked his father for a £300 loan to establish himself as a wine merchant in London. This ambitious young man was George Sandeman, the founder of Sandeman, who eventually founded one of the world's leading port and sherry wine companies. From an early age, Sandeman specialized in these two great Iberian fortified wines and, following a common practice at the time, began to trade not from its own offices, but from Tom's Coffee House in Birchin Lane, London. The deal was agreed on a “gentleman's word” and George soon gained an impeccable reputation that is characteristic of Sandeman to this day.
