Tio Pepe Fino en Rama
Wine🇪🇸 Jerez, Andalucía, Spain · Palomino

Bone-dry, saline and cheekily sharp, a sherry as crisp as Amis's satire. It is also, fittingly, the sort of thing Jim would be pressed to drink at a tiresome department party.

The Mood

A hapless junior lecturer stumbles through academic pretension, bad sherry and worse hangovers. Gleefully acid comedy that still makes you laugh out loud.
