Food Pairing Suggestions

Here are a few serving suggestions and pairing ideas to help you get the most from this sherry, whether you’re enjoying it with food or simply savouring it on its own.

A wonderfully versatile sherry for food pairing.

Classic Spanish tapas like tortillas de camarones (crispy shrimp fritters), anchovies, or salt‑roasted almonds come alive alongside this wine.

It also complements lighter starters including ceviche, sashimi, and fresh goat’s cheese. For a special dinner party, pair it with lemon‑dressed salads, crab croquettes, or smoked fish.

Meet The Wine Producer Behind The Bottle

A brief look at the producer’s heritage and winemaking approach.

Diatomists

Diatomists is a wine project focused on expressing the vineyard terroir of the Jerez region in southern Spain. Founded by three friends with backgrounds in the wine trade, the project works with local growers to highlight the importance of vineyard origin in traditional sherry production.

The vineyards lie on the famous albariza soils of Jerez - bright white limestone-rich soils formed from ancient marine sediments. These soils retain winter rainfall and sustain vines through the region’s hot, dry summers, producing grapes with concentration and a distinctive saline minerality.

Diatomists uses traditional sherry ageing methods including biological ageing under flor and oxidative ageing in oak barrels. Wines are often selected from individual barrels or vineyard sites to highlight the character of each terroir.

The name "Diatomists" pays tribute to the artisans skilled in the intricate art of diatom arrangement. Diatoms, single-cell algae, create intricate glass shells around themselves. Remarkably, five million years ago, the region of Jerez, where this exceptional sherry originates, was underwater.
