Lustau PAPIRUSA Manzanilla is an excellent sherry that is known for its freshness and finesse. With an alcohol content of 15 % vol., this sherry is produced from the best Palomino grapes from the Sanlúcar de Barrameda region in Spain. This region, which is known for its special climatic conditions and the influence of the Atlantic, offers ideal conditions for the organic ageing process, during which the flavours develop under the characteristic "flor" yeast cap. The PAPIRUSA Manzanilla stands for tradition and craftsmanship and was masterfully vinified by the renowned Lustau house, which is known for its outstanding quality.

"Papirusa", which means "elegant and beautiful", was the name of a doll that Lustau Emilio gave to the daughter of Joaquín Burgos, the first manager of Bodegas Lustau, in the 1940s. This name reflects the elegance and fine character of the sherry. The PAPIRUSA Manzanilla is an ideal example of Lustau's excellence and offers an exceptional flavour experience that embodies the high art of sherry production.

Tasting Note

Lustau PAPIRUSA Manzanilla has a light, golden colour in the glass, reflecting the freshness and elegance of the wine. On the nose, it has a lively bouquet of green apples, citrus fruits and a subtle salty note, which is typical of Manzanilla. On the palate, the wine is dry, with a crisp acidity and a wonderfully balanced freshness. Aromas of almonds, dried herbs and a fine yeast note round off the flavour profile. The finish is long and elegant, with a subtle minerality and a salty aftertaste typical of ageing under flor.

The sherry is also an excellent accompaniment to creamy goat's cheeses or light goat's cheese crostini. Lustau PAPIRUSA Manzanilla is the ideal companion for social occasions where the fine flavours of the sherry take centre stage.
