Beef in Sherry & Chipotle



Went to Ponte try the new Moscato today... it was as perfect as I thought.  But I am here to talk Sherry!  I am going to be perfectly honest and say that I had never tried Sherry before... Ever!  I always pictured my grandparents drinking it in little glasses after dinner, and it just never caught my attention.  While wine tasting I spotted the little bottle behind the counter and asked... “What is that?” Our gracious server brought this little bottle over and poured some in my glass... I was so impressed and could not believe I had missed out all these years!  It was chic, sophisticated, smooth.  My taste-buds went crazy thinking of all the things I could do with it, although I would be happy just sipping it!  Came home that same day and made this.
