Sherry MasterClass

Join us for an immersive exploration of one of the world's most captivating—and often misunderstood—wine regions. Led by Gordon's newest team member, Jessica Ortiz, this inaugural MasterClass is dedicated to the remarkable wines of Jerez. 

Jessica brings more than twenty years of experience in wine distribution, retail, and education. A Certified Sherry Educator, she has spent years studying and traveling throughout Andalucía, working closely with the producers and vineyards that define the wines of Jerez. Her deep knowledge of Spain's wine regions, gastronomy, and cultural traditions brings valuable context to the wines and traditions of Marco de Jerez.

Throughout the evening, Jessica will guide guests through the history, production methods, and extraordinary diversity of Sherry, exploring the role of flor, the solera aging system, and the diverse terroirs that define this remarkable region. The tasting will feature benchmark wines from some of Jerez's most revered houses and artisan producers, including Equipo Navazos, Bodegas Yuste, Valdespino, Bodegas Manuel Aragón, El Maestro Sierra, Bodegas Barbadillo, and Osborne. 

From crisp, saline Manzanillas and Finos to richly layered Amontillados, Olorosos, Palo Cortados, and luscious Pedro Ximénez, guests will discover why Sherry remains one of the wine world's greatest treasures—and one of its best values. 

Whether you're new to Sherry or an experienced aficionado, this MasterClass offers a rare opportunity to experience exceptional wines while gaining a deeper appreciation for the history, craftsmanship, and people behind this extraordinary region.
