Fino Sherry IS fortified, just not to the high levels that kill flor. See this link if your interested in learning what teh DO of Sherry says....Cheers, Oh and another thing the flor actually feeds off the alcohol and the wine needs to be refortified regularly to keep it alive! <a href="http://www.sherry.org/EN/fichafino.cfm%20">href="http://www.sherry.org/EN/fichafino.cfm ">http://www.sherry.org/EN/fichafino.cfm

Fino sherry is not fortified as it would kill the layer of flor growing on top of it, giving it its special aroma. Other styles are, though.

Jim, actually all sherry is fortified. That's how it's made, check out this post to learn even more: http://www.catavino.net/2005/09/10/sherry-101-b...

I would hate the wet sweater, but the smell, for me, would not be a bother! ;)

"How much you have DRUNK", Ryan! Drink, drank, drunk---I drink, I drank and I have drunk (doesn't mean I GOT DRUNK, of course!)In Spanish, in the event you go ahead and learn it, that would be: bebo, bebí and he bebido or, in the case of wine, most likely: tomo, tomé and he tomado.
