I'd go with dry white wine, vermouth, even a splash of vodka. Sherry
is sherry. Similar to Chinese wine but not sake. Sherry's a distinct
flavor, nutty, salty, whatever. I don't think sake could ever
dominate a dish like sherry can. I can even taste sherry in some rioja
wines and they're grown and bottled hundreds of miles apart. Over-
active imagination? Maybe.
