The 2026 Spring Release of Bodegas Hidalgo-La Gitana En Rama - Sea salt and ocean breezes….freshly bottled, natural and straight from the cask! One sip and you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the Cathedral Style Bodega of San Luis and treated to an ice cold glass of Manzanilla direct from the barrel.
Produced from 100 % Palomino grapes grown on white albariza soils at Hidalgo’s highest quality vineyards of El Cuadrado at Balbaina Alta and Miraflores. Manzanilla En Rama is sherry at its very best - unfined and only lightly filtered free-run juice which has spent eight years in the solera. This Spring 2025 release is available in limited quantities (only 35 barrels with a capacity of 1.000 litres of the solera are used)
Intense, complex and balanced on the nose, this En Rama is a crisp, citrusy and salty wine, influenced by the close proximity of the cellars in Sanlucar de Barrameda to the sea (only 500m away) as well as the altitude of the Balbaina vineyard (100m). Matured using the traditional ‘Criaderas y Solera’ process in American oak casks, under a layer of flor integrated by the yeasts.
At 15% alcohol, it is perfect served as an aperitif with salted nuts, olives and jamon or with fish, seafood, asparagus and artichokes.
