Review

There is a new Manzanilla from the masters of the style, the first new brand they release since they revolutionized the marked with their 'en rama' bottling. The NV Manzanilla Pasada en Rama Pastora differs from the Solear en Rama exclusively in the winery where the wine is aged, as it's bottled at a similar age, around nine years, and bottled untouched. This Manzanilla ages in the Pastora winery, but the wine is the same as the Solear. They are looking for a similar wine as the Solear en Rama and it is quite similar, but not exactly the same; the wine here feels a tad heavier, with more shoulders, a little wider in the palate. It's a matter of details. They will produce some 10,000 bottles per year in different lots, but the back label will mention the year of the bottling (and if you're into deciphering codes, L16-046, the lot, will tell you the day it was bottled). 93/100 Luis Gutiérrez

There is a new Manzanilla pasada and en rama from the masters of the style. They are also working more and more in unfortified wines with a superb white fermented in Manzanilla casks that was about to be bottled (and made me think of a young tender wine from the Jura), an unoaked red produced with Tintilla and another couple of reds. They are also releasing a super (mega) premium, (ultra) old Amontillado named Versos 1891 from some of the seven oldest barrels that belonged to the family kids (they received them as a present at birth) and were already very old when they were given them in the 1890s. But there will only be 100 bottles of that wine, and it's of academical interest and the price is outrageous. But the wine is superb...
