| Post subject: | Manzanilla NV £5.99 |
Winemaker and winery: Williams & Humbert. Grape variety: 100% Palomino Fino. Region: Sanlucar de Barrameda, Andalucia. Viticulture/Vinification: Vines are 25 years old and all low trellised. No irrigation and little mechanical harvesting. Temperature controlled fermentation at 24°C. The wine is aged in American oak casks for an average of 3 years and the solera system of continuous fractional ageing ensures consistency. Tasted directly after an eiswein. Dirty, earthy, yeasty aroma. Very lightweight, almost to the point of being watery. Lovely earthy, salty finish. 15% – 200 stores. 02/04/09 |
