Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Among the sweet sherries from El Maestro Sierra, the non-vintage Amoroso is medium amber in color and acquires its sweetness from the addition of a small amount of Pedro Ximinez to the Palomino base. It would match well with a fruit tart or creme brulee.

Description
Maestro Sierra Amoroso Medium is a jewel of Jerez's winemaking tradition, made from a careful blend of Palomino and Pedro Ximénez grapes. This wine stems from an old local practice in which workers, after their day's work, sought to soften the powerful flavour of Oloroso by adding a touch of Pedro Ximénez, thus creating a sweeter and more pleasant option, especially for their wives. The result is a "more loving" wine, hence its name.
Winemaking
Its exact composition is 90% Oloroso 15 years old, complemented with 10% Pedro Ximénez. Once blended, this wine is aged forfour additional years in American oak casks, achieving a perfect harmony between the body of the Oloroso and the sweetness of the Pedro Ximénez.
Taste
Maestro Sierra Amoroso Medium offers a unique taste experience, rich in nuances. On the nose, aromas of dried fruits, honey, flowers and a delicate touch of caramel and toasted bread predominate, anticipating a complex and delicious experience. On the palate, it has a smooth, velvety texture, with the full character of the Oloroso but softened by the mellowness provided by the Pedro Ximénez. Its flavour is balanced, with a long, sweet finish that makes it an excellent choice for pairing with desserts such as fruit tarts, crème brûlée or even toasted nuts. This wine is a perfect choice for those who are looking for a full-bodied, but at the same time accessible and silky sherry.
