Almonds and honey on the nose. Slightly tart and round body. Cherries, agave nectar. Juicy. — 6 years ago
Typical manzanilla: chamomile, yeast and seashells, dry and light — 7 years ago
The wine’s nose is vibrant and fresh with nutty aromas of yeast and salinity. A raisiny note adds counterpoint. On the palate it is rich and substantial. It’s very, very dry and has quite a long finish. — 9 years ago
Pair lovely and crisp. Just so wine. — 10 years ago

Incredibly good! This is a young amontillado, some would call it amontillado fino, with 9 years in solera. The style is fresh, young, and flavorful. Beautiful light amber color with notes of orange peel, pecans, hazelnuts, a bit of toffee and some hints of yeast. Young amontillado doesn’t get any better than this. NV on Feb 12, 2019 — 6 years ago
Singed wood, dried tobacco, bitter almond, this has a lot to give. — 6 years ago
Dry but not too sour. Sip for the aroma and the loooong finish. I am not a sherry expert, but this is elegant. — 7 years ago
Go to Manz! Buy it by the case. — 10 years ago

Awesome Manzanilla at 13 $, very briny. — 12 years ago
Mind Blowing! For a fino sherry, the depth and complexity of this wine is unrivaled. This is THE benchmark for all Finos. The previous reviews do a great job describing the taste. This is the only Fino that still follows traditional methods - aged under flor for 8 - 10 years in an oak Solera. Oh - and the palomino grapes all come from a single vineyard as well. Honestly, there is no better fino than this. Drink it with a plate of smoked ham and almonds or some strong tasting sushi. Enjoy! — 6 years ago
Delicious Oloroso. Toasted walnut with a hint of orange peel. — 6 years ago
Exceptional single-vineyard Manzanilla. Bone dry with an agile depth and weight. After 12-14 years in the solera this has a nearly endless finish. Aged manchego, chorizo, Andalusian tripe - versatile and dramatically lovely — 8 years ago
Smooth mineral aroma. Acidic salty taste and a full body. Better after opening. — 10 years ago

Unsweetened caramel, toasted walnuts and cashews. Wonderfully layered with complexity and tremendous length. — 11 years ago
