Manzanilla La Gitana Sweet wine
Experience the exquisite taste of Manzanilla «La Gitana», a delightful sweet wine crafted by Bodegas Hidalgo. This 0.75-liter bottle boasts an elegant 15% alcohol content, making it the perfect companion for your culinary adventures. Made from carefully cultivated Palomino Fino grapes, this wine is a product of the renowned Finca «El Cuadrado» located in the esteemed Balbaina Alta zone, widely recognized for its exceptional albaniza soil rich in calcium carbonate.
The meticulous growing conditions contribute to the refined musts that are essential for producing high-quality Manzanilla, resulting in its distinct character and remarkable salinity. After careful vinification, the wine is aged in soleras that trace back to 1792. The first three years are spent in the historic Bodega de San Fermín, just 300 meters from the river, where the unique microclimate influences the wine's development. It then continues its maturation in the main aging facility for an additional two to three years, where it is refined in large casks that have remained in their original location since the winery's early days.
The aging process allows the wine to interact harmoniously with the Flor veil, protecting it from oxidation and enhancing its complexity. When served chilled, Manzanilla «La Gitana» shines as an exquisite partner for a variety of tapas, including fresh seafood, smoked dishes, white meats, and salads. It is an ideal choice for elevating any gathering or aperitif, providing a rich and pleasurable tasting experience that truly embodies the essence of Spain. Indulge in this remarkable wine and elevate your dining moments to new heights.
