El Cid is wonderfully balanced with bright acidity from the vinegar syrup but still with great depth thanks to the combination of Sherry & Mezcal.

Pairing Oloroso with food
The ideal temperature at which to serve an Oloroso is at between 12 and 14ºC.
This is the most suitable wine to accompany red meat and game. It combines perfectly with meat stews and casseroles; especially gelatinous meat such as bull's tail or cheeks. The perfect match for wild mushrooms and well cured cheeses.
