sherry 雪利酒

来自 sherris,雪利酒，来自 vino de Xeres,产自 Xeres 的酒，现拼做 Jerez,色雷斯，西班牙西南部城市，因配制雪利酒而闻名。由于误以为 Sherris 为复数形式，最后单数化为 sherry,类似错误比较 cherry,原为 cherise.

sherry: sherry: [16] Various sorts of dryish or sweetened white wine known as sack (etymologically ‘dry wine’) were imported into England in the 16th and 17th centuries. Many came from Spain, and the sort made around Xerez (now Jerez) in southern Spain was called in English (in an approximation to the Spanish pronunciation of Xerez) sherris sack. Before the end of the 16th century this had been reduced to sherry, which in due course came to be applied to the fortified Spanish wine that now goes by that name.
sherry (n.): kind of white wine, c. 1600, mistaken singular from sherris (1530s), from Spanish (vino de) Xeres "(wine from) Xeres," modern Jerez (Roman (urbs) Caesaris) in Spain, near the port of Cadiz, where the wine was made.
