History
Oxford Dry Oloroso is named after the historic British university town, reflecting the long tradition of the British sherry trade. Bodegas Dios Baco developed this fully dry Oloroso for export to the UK market, where dry styles were preferred by the educated consumer rather than the standard sweet cream.
