Chantal helms Shaw’s ham and sherry bar that’s become a popular haunt for sherry newbies and enthusiasts alike. She says, “sherry is a cocktail in a glass,” meaning that it’s far more complex than other wine, with 307 aromatic compounds. In addition to amassing an impressive collection of different styles, she’s curated a cocktail list with depth.
