Hidalgo La Gitana Manzanilla is a 15% ABV Palomino Fino sherry from Sanlucar de Barrameda in Andalucia. The grapes come from El Cuadrado vineyard in the Balbaina Alta estate, planted in white albariza soil with over 80% calcium carbonate. It is considered the vineyard with the most Atlantic influence in Jerez Superior. After natural fermentation, the wine spends three years in the soleras, which date to 1792, at Bodega San Fermín, less than 1,000 feet from the shore. The location produces a thick flor, and the salinity comes from active yeasts, not the sea. Expect bright acidity, clarity, green apple and a distinct saltiness.
Bodegas Hidalgo La Gitana was founded in 1792 by Don José Pantaleón Hidalgo, who bought a small storage warehouse from Don Roque Vejarano. The family still runs it, with the eighth generation directing the firm. It uses grapes from its own vineyards in Balbaina and Miraflores.
