  1. I'm guessing you'd serve it with a dessert. Any ideas?

    Lenona.

    Are you talking about Jerez Cherry wine?
    There are so many varieties, and they're so distant from each other,
    that asking how to pair a Chery Wine makes sense just as asking what
    to match with a white wine from Piedmont: there are dry ones, sweet
    ones, off-dry ones, made with freshly harvested grapes or raisins...
    Which kind of Cherry Wine do you have there?

    I'd never try to pair cheese and crackers with a PX Cherry wine.

    I had no idea. The well-stocked place I stopped at (I haven't bought
    it yet) thought at first they didn't have cherry wine or any "fruit
    wines" when I asked and then as I was leaving, they called out and
    showed me a bottle that was maybe bigger than a quart. The short name
    may have been Eastern European or Russian - at any rate, I think it
    had a "j" in the middle and an "a" at the end. (The price was
    definitely $9.99.)

    BTW, this was the sort of liquor store where you can also buy French
    bread, other breads, and lots of cheese.

    I was merely curious because one seldom gets offered "fruit wines" at
    all, and the only time I ever even HEARD of it was in the book "Mary
    Poppins Comes Back." (Jane, who's under ten, gets offered "tea or
    cherry-wine."😉

    Lenona.

    Perhaps Cherry Kijafa, a very old cherry wine that used to be
    fairly well known. Years ago an excellent seafood restaurant
    in Toronto, Danish-owned, used to offer a complimentary glass
    of it after dinners. Very nice but too sweet for food, really...

    Oh man, I'd love to try a cherry wine. I like my wines sweet and fruity.

    Seriously, most cherry juice you can buy has grape concentrate
    added to it to up the sugar content. I don't think cherries,
    undoctored, are sweet enough to make wine from.
