For generations, Croft Sherry has been a drink of choice in many British households. A Croft is heritage, nostalgia, and excellence rolled into one truly sophisticated beverage.

The grapes were harvested by hand with a strict selection process ensuring that only the best bunches were picked. After being de-stemmed the grapes were transferred to temperature controlled fermentation tanks using nothing other than the force of gravity. Malolactic fermentation took place afterwards in new French and American oak barrels in which the wine was subsequently left to rest for thirteen months, acquiring just the right touch of wood that characterises each component of the blend.
