Since it was served in a frozen shot glass and had a rich, tawny color, I figured it was whiskey. However, I was immediately shocked! It wasn't hard alcohol but a delicious, syrupy wine. The pourer was kind enough to offer me a full glass to better enjoy the smooth, medium-bodied wine. </p> <p>Somewhere between a sweet <a href="http://www.yumsugar.com/1894079" >Sherry</a> and an uber-orangey liquor, S'Naranja is made with two types of Spanish grapes: Palomino Fino and Pedro Ximénez. Dried orange peels are added to the wine during it's 10-year barrel-aging process. The result is a luscious wine splashed with a hint of fresh oranges and creamy, caramel-raisin undertones. </p> <p>With its bright bottle and easy pairability (I would serve it with everything from salty snacks to sweet bites), this wine makes a great hostess gift. <br clear=all></p> http://www.yumsugar.com/1970320#comment happy hour spanish wine orange sherry sweet wines s'naranja Wed, 10 Sep 2008 16:15:49 -0700 partysugar http://www.yumsugar.com/1970320
