Sherry is a type of fortified wine made from three grape varieties: Palomino, Pedro Ximénez, and Muscat, then fortified with brandy and sometimes put through a second fermentation. It is Spanish in origin, and like champagne in France, only the wine made in Spain may be called sherry.
"Dry" and "sweet" are descriptive terms related to how much residual sugars remain after fermentation is stopped; sweet wines obviously have more residual sugars, while dry wines have little or no sugar remaining.

Theyuks is mostly right in this case but in addition peculiar to Sherry there are different "finishes" . Dry means actually a slight astringent/sour taste, Manzanilla (which means little apple in Spanish) is fruity, Cream sherry is sweet, Oloroso is heavy, etc. I think there are a couple of other kinds too but I don't drink so this is just from friends and going to the store.

in case you have no of the alcohols handy, you may continuously flow non-alcoholic with apple or white grape juice (sounds extraordinary although if it works), any style of soup inventory like hen, beef, or vegetable inventory works properly too. basic water would artwork too yet i'd upload a number of your renowned seafood-variety seasonings to assist out with the flavour.
