Apera, formerly known as Australian sherry, is a fortified wine style produced in Australia, made in a similar manner to traditional Spanish sherry. It comes in various styles, including dry, medium, and sweet, with flavors ranging from nutty and saline to rich and caramelized. The ABV for Apera typically ranges from 15-20%. Its popularity in Australia is due to its versatility and the ability to produce a wide range of styles suitable for different occasions.
The production of Apera involves fortifying the wine with grape spirit, often followed by aging in a solera system, similar to Spanish sherry. This method allows for complex flavor development and a consistent style over time. Apera's diverse range, from light and dry to rich and sweet, makes it a favorite for both sipping and cooking, reflecting Australia's adaptation of traditional winemaking techniques.
