Manzanilla Fina 15%, Herederos de Argueso

Appearance
Very pale and bright with slightest green tint, legs.
Nose
Soft, fresh and light, hints of fruit and quite floral with touches of camomile, young but characterful.
Palate
All the above plus a touch of that flor salinity, low acid but the bitterness from the flor compensates. Dry,soft and rounded, gentle tasty and long.
Comments
Most attractive wine, a perfect introduction to Manzanilla. This is the firm's youngest wine and comes from a system of 7 criaderas and a solera, giving it an average age of between 3 and 4 years.
Price
3,60 Euros in Spain, but looks hard to get in UK. Try the Wine Society.
