XECO SETS THE SCENE AT NEW SHERRY BOOK LAUNCH

On Monday 21st October, the prestigious Academie du Vin will officially launched the next book under their new publishing arm, this time on Sherry. Penned by non-other than XECO’s long-standing advisor and fortified wine legend, Ben Howkins, ‘Sherry: Maligned, Misunderstood, Magnificent’ covers the history of this wonderful wine (including the reasons for its fall from grace in the 90s), info on all the leading brands, and interviews with personalities from across the industry including XEQUITA Beanie.

Hot on the heels of the Spanish launch at the Consejo Regulador in Jerez, Spain, this event was hosted at London’s prestigious 67 Pall Mall club, where XECO was the welcome drink (served neat or in a spritz with Double Dutch Cucumber and Watermelon) as the great and good for the wine, publishing and journalism worlds came to toast this fab new book - and the long-awaited comeback of Sherry too of course.
