Valdespino, Deliciosa Manzanilla, Sanlucar de Barrameda, Andalusia, Spain

Tasting Note: A manzanilla with a floral, lemon-citrus character and a pleasing, slightly-oily texture.

Pale-intensity gold in color, this wine has a nose of overnight-rested bread dough, lightly-browned toast, almond and walnut with hints of brininess.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied manzanilla has some tartness with a slightly oily texture.

There is some midpalate complexity along with flavors of bright-lemon citrus.

The wine has some toasted almond notes on the nose with more medium-browned-toast notes on the palate.
