Manzanilla sherry is a special style of fino that originates only from the coastal town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda at the estuary of the Guadalquivir River.

Vinification details: A bone dry Manzanilla Pasada Sherry which has been biologically aged for 6 years in the old oak casks at Barbadillo's bodegas in the seaside Sherry town Sanlúcar de Barrameda. The sea breezes that blow into Sanlúcar are what gives Manzanilla its hallmark salty tang.
