Lustau Don Nuño Dry Oloroso Sherry
Fortified red🇪🇸 Jerez, Andalucía, Spain · Palomino
Nutty, bone-dry and amber as a late-night whiskey, this is a detective's drink with no sentimentality. Its savory edge suits Spade's cold-eyed wit.
The Pour
2
Ridge Vineyards Geyserville
Wine🇺🇸 Sonoma County, California, USA · Zinfandel blend
A San Francisco-adjacent red with swagger, dark fruit and a peppery bite. It has the rough charm of Hammett's city and the same refusal to be tamed.
The Mood
Sam Spade navigates a fog of liars and a black bird worth killing for. Terse, cynical and endlessly quotable, it is the blueprint for noir.
