Almost fifteen years into the project, Equipo Navazos remains one of the most intriguing, dynamic and compelling projects in the world of wine.
The talent behind La Bota has an uncanny ability to identify sherries of singular intensity, elegance, and texture.
Manzanillas are some of the most beautiful fino sherries around. Equipo Navazos, of course, takes this to the next level.
As many of you know, Manzanillas are fino Sherries made close to the ocean, in Sanlúcar. These are the most delicate, feather-weight dry sherries out there. The ocean atmosphere brings a bracing, sea-breeze imbued note to the citrus-almond core.
The Manzanilla #93 adds another dimension of flavor and energy to the saline elegance. In short, it's thrilling. This is a Manzanilla of depth and resonance, but also saline delicacy and cut. Recently, we've focused on Equipo Navazos' Manzanilla Pasada bottlings. In comparison, the Manzanilla #93 feels brighter, driven by more citrus, and with a blatantly energetic mineral core.
Sherry can be startlingly, life-alteringly good. It can possess the finesse, detail, and complexity that only wines of the finest breeding can rival. The Manzanilla #93 brings this point home very strongly.
