Description

"With its mahogany colour, it shows intense and very complex aromas, with hints of dried grapes (raisins, dried figs, dried apricots), hardwood and caramel. It is very soft and sweet, balanced, long and lingering in the mouth. Perfect to enjoy as an aperitif or dessert."

 

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Delgado Zuleta

Delgado Zuleta is the oldest, still active, producer of Sherry. Most Sherry is produced in Jerez but there is a smaller town of Sanlucar de Barrameda, which is on the coast, where Delgado Zuleta is set up. They have been producing top quality Sherry wines since 1744. At the forefront of Delgado Zuleta's portfolio are Manzanilla Sherries.

 

 

--------THE GRAPE--------

Palomino

Palomino is famous for its usage in the fortified wines of Sherry where it is the base for everything from Fino to Oloroso sherries. As a white wine it is often bland but great examples of Palomino are zesty with fresh lime and green apple flavours.


 

--------THE REGION--------

Sanlucar de Barrameda

This is an important part of the small region in the southwest of Spain that makes the legendary fortified wines of Sherry. There are actually three towns that make up the Sherry region.  Jerez the most famous and important town with Sanlucar de Barrameda and El Puerto de Santa Maria the other two.  Manzanilla is a DO in Sanlucar de Barrameda and that wine is known as Fino in Jerez.
