  Bait and switch? - 8/14/2008
I would buy this wine again
There is no review from the IWC online of this. I didn't think wine.com would do this. You have to require a taste for this wine, in my opinion. It's something different.

I would not buy this wine again. I thought it tasted more like cold medicine than anything else.

okay so i dont know much about sherry....but... as a wine lover...I couldn't drink it. So different tasting from wine. Hate to admit it but poured it down the drain. I guess it must be an acquired taste

 I would buy this wine again
i did not realize when i ordered this that it was SHERRY and not a white wine (duh!). Nevertheless, it was delightful, especially with Spanish tapas such as manchego cheese and serrano ham. Will order again.

This reminds me of one of the first bottles of wine I ever opened (30 years ago), didn't drink it all, and let it sit in a warm cupboard for a month. Then try to drink it.. of course it had turned sour. This is what this Manzanilla tastes like. UGH. And I bought 4 bottles on wine.com recommendations!

This is an amazing wine to serve as a starter/apertif with roasted almonds, smokey dry meats, olives. Remember to serve it in a sherry glass! ...Proper porportion makes a difference in the experience of this fine wine.

  Did I get the wrong wine? - 12/24/2007

The ST rating of 97, and the others' glowing reviews are confusing me, as the manzanilla I had, tasted of nothing more than spicy seawater. I know that the briney taste is characteristic of manzanilla, but there were absolutely no other flavors present.

A Customer - Seattle
Very flavorful bone dry sherry. The aroma is nutty with hints of fresh cut figs and honeysuckle blossom. On the tongue, the flavors reinforce the nose and add subtle touches of vanilla and oak. It has a big round feel in the mouth like biting into a slice of honey baked ham. I like this stuff way too much. My wife is starting to ask where all the little wine bottles come from.
A Customer - Florida
Tried this last night. Very, VERY good. Delicious nutty flavors, longer finish than other finos I've tried.
A Customer - peru
The best I had so far long lasting flavor a must to drink.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
