History
Each La Bota de Manzanilla edition is selected from a single bota in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, where Atlantic proximity intensifies the flor veil and creates the most saline and delicate of all biological sherries. Equipo Navazos bottles without dilution or filtration to capture the maximum character of the individual barrel.
