Happily at Xmas, the half finished bottle of sherry coincides with leftover dry turkey which desperately needs a rich sherry sauce, ditto cold ham or beef which again are enlivened by a well made sauce.
All for very little cost. The reason sherry always tastes better in Spain is because a bottle barely lasts a week! Last year I had some Tio Pepe standard vs the Tio Pepe En Rama back to back - its an eye opener in terms of how much flavour is muted through filtering and stabilisation.
I believe that to be scientifically correct … My grandmother said so too! How long does sherry last once opened and not consumed Drinks Chat. I have some palo cortado and PX in mind.

Once opened, store light sherries in the refrigerator to prolong their life up to around two weeks. Unopened Amontillados can keep for two to three years while Olorosos, sweet, and cream sherries can all be stored for many years.
