dbo:abstract
  • Sack is an antiquated wine term referring to white fortified wine imported from mainland Spain or the Canary Islands. There was sack of different origins such as: * Canary sack from the Canary Islands, * Malaga sack from Málaga, * Palm sack from Palma de Mallorca, and * Sherris sack from Jerez de la Frontera The term Sherris sack later gave way to sherry as the English term for fortified wine from Jerez. Since sherry is practically the only one of these wines still widely exported and consumed, "sack" (by itself, without qualifier) is commonly but not quite correctly quoted as an old synonym for sherry. Most sack was probably sweet, and matured in wooden barrels for a limited time. In modern terms, typical sack may have resembled cheaper versions of medium Oloroso sherry. Today, sack is sometimes seen included in the name of some sherries, such as the Williams & Humbert brand "Dry Sack". (en)
