Producer Equipo Navazos
Region, Country Sanlucar de Barrameda, Spain
Bottle Size 1.5L
Product Code 14543-1500

Here two toneles of 90 arrobas (i.e. 1,500 litres each) were filled with a selection of the best wines of the first criadera (1/41) of the extraordinary Manzanilla Pasada from Misericordia (same genealogy as the stunning La Bota No. 10, 20, 30, etc.). The average age of the wine is estimated to be around 13-years-old. It is a complex and powerful wine, a striking Sherry of balanced freshness and fine oxidative notes. Stunningly versatile on the dinner table, it matches a wide variety of food, including rich fish dishes, charcuterie, truffled eggs, etc. Best served around 11º C in quality stemware.

Reviews

Eduardo Ojeda started putting some wines away in the Calle Misericordia winery, some 41 casks that were turned into criaderas of the manzanilla pasada; and from those casks, he selected 2,000 liters that put into two 1,000-liter barrels that are thought to be over 100 years of age. The wine can be around ten-years-old. They also sourced a younger wine to make the magnums more affordable. It has the more oxidative character than the older wines, as if the begging of the oxidative phase is somehow disturbing after the long biological aging. The wine shows much better in the palate where you find a solid wine. This is a younger brother (or sister) of the older manzanillas pasadas, which should develop nicely once it is bottled - and especially in magnum. They expect to fill 1,300 magnums from two 1,000-liter barrel.”
