100% Palomino aged for an average of 7 years, which is very long for the style • The solera of this Manzanilla Pasada (long aging) consists of 80 casks, which are aged in Manuel Cuevas Jurado’s bodegas in “Calle Trabajadero” (Trabajadero St.) in Sanlúcar de Barrameda • Pale straw color, this Sherry is high toned with notes of salt-sprayed apples and orchard fruit with an above average intensity than most Manzanilla.

Tasting Notes

Pale straw in color, this Manzanilla Pasada is delightfully aromatic, reminiscent of green apples, with the characteristic hint of a sea breeze. Dry, fresh and light, yet with substance and body and a refreshing acidity.

"This almacenista bottling has been in the Lustau catalogue for years, unlike several otherones that were lost because the solera owners decided to go to the market directly. Jurado,sManzanillas are pungent and beguilingly long on the palate; the spicy, lightly evolved Pasadaversion is perhaps the purest and sharpest wine in this category. Remarkable character."
