A new edition emanating from the same solera that had been foremost in the previous releases of La Bota (Butt) No. 4, 8, 16, 22, 32 and 42. La Bota de Manzanilla, elaborated by Miguel Sánchez Ayala, is an intense wine on the nose, as well as delicate, saline and lively on the palate. Unsurpassable as a companion to food, it is outstanding with any products connected to Spain's fishing tradition (potatoes served with mackerel, Basque tuna fish stew, cooked crabs, baked sea-bream) and international dishes too (tuna sashimi loins, marinated herrings, mussels a la marinera or sailor-style), and especially with spicy South-east Asian cuisine. It has been bottled with a light filtration in order to preserve its authenticity and the intense yellow colour with greenish flecks as it appears in the butt.
NOTE: It should be served at about 9-11ºC in a reasonably wide glass, but never one used for serving beer, nor a small or tasting glass.
Aged in a row of 12 barrels, or ‘scales’ in the series, with an average age of around 6 years old. This release extracted in November 2014.
