What They've Been Saying About Hartley & Gibson's

Hartley & Gibson's: A Success Story
"Jack Poust & Company, (New York) the importer of this phenomenon, has taken HARTLEY & GIBSON'S from practically nowhere up to the top rank of imported Sherries."
— "The Wine Trade" by Ed Everett

When It Comes To Sherries, Harvey's Isn't the Only Cream of the Crop
"While Bristol Cream was the sweetest, smoothest, and creamiest, HARTLEY & GIBSON'S had more complex flavors, tighter structure and a better developed bouquet. Both are fine wines though in different styles. I'd call it a draw except in price." 
— The Baltimore Sun, "Wine" by Michael Dresser

In a Class by Themselves
"There are imported sherries and there are imported sherries, but none compare in popularity and price or quality to Hartley & Gibson's sherries. They are in a class by themselves."
— Bay View Magazine, San Francisco

"My house brand is Hartley & Gibson's."
— San Francisco Chronicle, "One Man's Wine" by Larry Walker
