The gypsy girl, possibly the best known manzanilla, you could say she is the face of Manzanilla. The picture on the label was painted byJoaquín Turina. Again this is a very popular manzanilla, its the drink of choice in the bars of Seville, which must be the sherry drinking capital of the world.
This bottle is getting towards the end of its drinking life having been bottled in January this year, but it is still showing very well looks fresh. A fresher bottle (less than 6 months in bottle) may go up a point.
Very pale with aromas of sea spray and almonds with a great yeasty, flor character oozing the essence of good manzanilla. Dry, refreshing and balanced in the mouth, more lightly salted nuts, bitter herbs and a touch of apple. 88 Pts.
