    I dont think they'd appreciate the treble vodkas as soon as they walked through the door

    No, I just want to make an effort. I opted for a bottle of Tio Pepe (which is probably crap), but I got a really nice bottle of port aswell, so I'm sure it'll be fine.

    Thanks for all the answers anyway.

    I have people coming over Xmas who are very posh and have very high standards! They like sherry, but I'm guessing they dont mean QC!
    Not sherry but nectar of the gods

    Sometimes difficult to get hold of but well worth it for the officianado.

    I'm quite partial to the odd glass of sherry.

    This one is quite pleasant (crap web site though)

    Serve slightly chilled with roast almonds, seasoned to taste.

    Available at Waitrose, Majestic and probably other inferior suppliers as well.
