Very dry variety of sherry (4)
I believe the answer is:
fino
'sherry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fino that I've seen before include "Type of sherry" , "Bone dry sherry, served chilled" , "Driest of the sherries" , "Light dry sherry" , "Dry Spanish sherry" .)
