Eric Asimov of the New York Times remarked in a recent review, “To me, there is no better aperitif in the world than a glass of manzanilla, though with a seafood or sushi dinner I’ve been known to drink it throughout the entire meal.”
It is the lightest and most delicate member of the sherry family and can only be made in the coastal town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda set at the mouth of the River Guadalquivir.
The position of the town, set between the sea and the river and the marshlands to the north, combines with the particular topography of the town itself to create an especially humid and constant microclimate.
