N.V. Navazos La Bota No.130 Manzanilla Pasada

A Manzanilla Pasada sits between pure Manzanilla and Amontillado in style, combining the lifted, saline freshness of flor ageing with the complexity and depth that come from gentle oxidative evolution. This release shows great biological intensity, with steely salinity and the distinctive character that defines Equipo Navazos’ style. As the flor naturally weakens, subtle oxidative notes begin to emerge, accompanied by a slight rise in alcohol (above 16%), creating a wine of exceptional balance and presence. Aromas of sea breeze, roasted nuts, dried citrus peel, and hints of caramel and dried fruit, all follow through onto the palate with a bright, saline core. Like its celebrated predecessors - Nos. 100, 110, and 120 -this is a powerful yet refined Manzanilla Pasada, a benchmark for the category and a must-have for lovers of mature, complex wines from Sanlucar.
