Tasting Note

Made from Palomino grapes, mainly from the Miraflores estate: one of Sanlúcar's most prestigious. Ageing and development is carried out in the coastal town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, here the flor in the solara grows more quickly in the humid conditions, developing the flavours of this Fino Sherry into the town’s unique style. This Manzanilla has a pronounced freshness and saline savouriness, perfect as an aperetif with almonds and cured ham.

Product Notes

La Guita En Rama Manzanilla is a delightful Spanish white wine, originating from the sun-dappled vineyards of Andalusia. Possessing a distinctively light and refreshing body, it offers an invitingly crisp palate of salty almonds, green apples, and bracing sea spray. Its colour - a delicate, straw-like yellow - complements the natural, subtle flavours achieved through an intricate winemaking process. En Rama denotes its raw, minimally filtered state, making it pure and full-flavoured, presenting the true essence of Manzanilla. This unadulterated expression of Sanlúcar's unique climate is incredibly invigorating, pairing exceptionally well with seafood or classic tapas.
