Oloroso, Amontillado, and Palo Cortado sherries are either dry (without a sweetness label) or labelled as Dry, Medium, or Cream.
Which sherry is driest?
Fino. The driest, most saline style of Sherry, it's generally made from high-acid Palomino grapes grown in chalky white soils called albariza. Finos are tank-fermented white wines that spend their entire fortified existence under a blanket of yeast called flor, which protects the product from oxidation.
What is best dry sherry?
Topping this list as the very best Dry Sherry is Lustau Dry Amontillado Los Arcos. This Sherry made the list as one of Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines and has received scores in the 90's with professional critics. As an Amontillado, this sherry was not kept under a protective layer of yeast the entire time it was aged.
