Sherry density evidence
Sherry is a fortified wine from Andalusia, Spain, spanning styles from very dry and saline to rich and oxidative, valued for its savory complexity.
Practical use: Sherry is used as a fortified wine to add savory depth, dryness, or oxidative richness depending on style. It contributes complexity and balance in low- to medium-ABV mixed builds and is widely used in cooking to enhance sauces, reductions, marinades, and savory preparations.
Composition and sensory context: Sherry covers a broad spectrum of fortified-wine styles, from bone-dry and saline expressions to richer, nutty, oxidative profiles with dried-fruit depth. Across styles, it can deliver savory notes, gentle sweetness, and a distinctive oxidative character shaped by maturation and blending. Compared to aromatized wines like vermouth, sherry is not botanical-driven; its complexity comes from base wine character, fortification, and aging methods.
Sherry uses 0.994 g/mL in this dataset, which is 0.6% lighter by volume than the 1 g/mL water reference. Evidence status: medium-confidence. Source basis: Wine/Vermouth density approximation near room temperature using a unified wine rule.
Among the 23 reviewed records labeled Wines & Fortified Wines, the nearest density to Sherry is Cocchi Americano at 0.994 g/mL: an absolute difference of 0 g/mL (0.0% relative to Sherry). The observed range in this labeled group is Cocchi Americano at 0.994 g/mL to Red wine at 0.995 g/mL. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the liquids are interchangeable.
Brand formulation, alcohol or sugar concentration, carbonation, and serving temperature can change the weight of a measured volume. Use this value as a documented reference rather than a producer specification.
