Tasting Notes

Bright straw in the glass, it opens with fresh flor aromas, chamomile, and sea-breeze salinity. The palate is bone dry, crisp, and elegant, with persistent yeast, almond, and saline notes on the finish.

Food Paring

Serve this manzanilla with olives, almonds, sushi, shellfish, or fried seafood for a bright and savory aperitif. Its tangy saline edge also makes it a superb match for tapas and lightly seasoned fish dishes.

Professional Reviews

90 Wine Spectator

"This rather full-bodied Manzanilla offers sunchoke, salted butter, yellow apple, dried lemon peel and Brazil nut notes all seamlessly layered and rippling through the lengthy, chalk-tinged finish."

90 Wine Advocate

"The NV Manzanilla Papirusa from Sanlucar de Barrameda has an intense straw color with a smoky nose of roasted nuts. The palate is dry and light, with clean, pungent flavors, showing finesse and good length. Lustau is doing a good job to improve their Manzanillas, working with a good almacenista in Sanlucar."

90 Decanter

"Restrained, not very obvious, shows its power in the palate, with complex yeasty-nutty aromas and a saline aftertaste. Delicious, appetizing; a benchmark indeed"
