Bodegas Hidalgo La Gitana

Golden and very dry, this single-vineyard Manzanilla Pasada combines sea-spray salinity with toasted almond, hazelnut and subtle oxidative notes. The palate is concentrated yet delicate, showing firm freshness, balance and a long, elegant finish. Made from Palomino Fino grown in the Pastrana vineyard in the Miraflores district, it is excellent with olives, cured meats, pâté, consommé, shellfish, fish or aged cheese. Serve well chilled.

Straw-yellow in colour, this fortified wine is dry, crisp, delicate and balanced. It matures beneath a veil of flor and carries fifteen percent alcohol. Made from Palomino in Jerez, it has aromas linked to flor and a spicy, persistent palate. The style is served slightly chilled and suits tapas, cured ham, fish, seafood, mild cheese and nuts.
