Sherry help

I love Harveys sherry, I don't like dry wine/sherry, it has to be sweet. I have a Sainsbury's voucher but I can only buy Sainsbury's branded alcohol. What sherry would be sweet? Whenever I try to buy anything but Harveys it ends up being dry and not to my taste!

The best sherry I've found is Aldi's Cromwell. Gorgeous, sweet & only £4.49 for a litre bottle. Can't help with recommendations for any others though, sorry.

Harvey’s (presuming their Bristol cream one) is a blend of four sherries. I imagine any of Sainsbury’s “sweet cream” sherries would be very similar. Their Pedro Ximenez is also very nice (basically Christmas in a bottle!!)

Sainsbury's Sweet Rich Cream Sherry will be close to what you normally like, a good buy at £5:50.

Or if you wanted to try something a little more complex, Sainsburys Taste the Difference 12 year old Oloroso Sherry at £8:00 is medium sweet and goes well with cubes of cheese or some nuts for a nice aperero.

Chin-chin! Wine Wine

Thank you everyone, this has been a risky thread, if I like the £5 Sherry I may go through a bottle a week till Christmas.......!

Oooh sherry ❤️
Dark cream sherry as suggested would be the best one for you
We have a bottle of sherry at Christmas and start it on the first Sunday in December ( counts days ... )
