Bodegas Hidalgo
Winery
Bodegas Hidalgo la Gitana was founded in 1792 and since then the company has passed from father to son. Today is one of the few wine companies owned and controlled by the family and run by the eight generation in direct line of the founder. The golden colored Manzanilla Pasada Pastrana is a Manzanilla produced from Palomino grapes from the Pastrana vineyard within the Miraflores Estate, aged under flor, but finishing its upbringing in a semi-oxidative way as the flor weakens, starts to die off, and bottled with a total average of 12 year of age. It was the first single vineyard wine of the whole Sherry area.

Tasting Note
A dry, crisp and smooth white wine matured in the coastal town of Sanlucar de Barrameda within the Denominacion of Origen ―Manzanilla – Sanlucar de Barrameda. It has a distinct nose redolent of peanuts, smoke, bitter almonds, quince and olives, combining biological and oxidative notes. The palate shows a medium- to full-bodied wine, very powerful and strongly-flavored, ending with a smoky finish. A fine nose and a powerful palate.
