Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Straw in color with tangy aromas of the sea rounded out by fruity lemon curd, almond skin, toasted bread and yeasty notes on the palate, this Manzanilla has a complexity fit for a King.

    Full of aromas of iodine and nutes, this wine has a depth of acidity that makes it feel almost citric. A complex Manzanilla blended from wines five years of age, it has the freshness of the sea breeze in Sanlucar, making it an ideal aperitif.

    How can one not love this wine? When I close my eyes and let the Orleans Borbon Manzanilla Fina aroma's take me over, I imagine fresh breezes from the ocean air. This wine is incredibly alluring, focused and delicious, perfect with sashimi. Medium straw color, strong and focused aromas of rancio and nuttiness, excellent depth; medium bodied, lively and persistent on the palate; dry, fine acidity, well balanced; rancio, salty and briny flavors, excellent; medium finish, crisp aftertaste. Now let's head over to the closest and fresh sushi bar and enjoy this Manzanilla. (Tasted: June 17, 2015, San Francisco, CA)

Orleans Borbon, Spain
Orleans Borbon Winery Image

In 1849, during an exploration expedition of Andalucía, Don Antonio de Orleans, the Duke of Montpensier and son of King Louis Philippe of France, fell in love with the magical fishing village of Sanlucar de Barrameda and planted his roots there. Among various business ventures Don Antonio de Orleans began cultivating vineyards and slowly building the foundation for the family tradition that would become Sherry. A century later, his descendants developed the family´s various ventures into a Brandy and Sherry business which carries on today as Bodegas los Infantes de Orleans Borbón.

Housed in a XIX century courtyard palace influenced by the Moors, this classically built winery within Sanlucar de Barrameda, cellars some of the finest sherry soleras in the region. Today, Infantes de Orleans de Borbons is owned by the Spanish Royal Family and until very recently, these wines were sold only in very limited quantities outside of the Royal House -- wines fit for a King.

Sherry is a fortified wine that comes in many styles from dry to sweet. True Sherry can only be made in Andalucía, Spain where the soil and unique seasonal changes give a particular character to its wines. The process of production—not really the grape—determine the type, though certain types are reserved for certain grapes. Palomino is responsible for most dry styles; Pedro Ximénez and Muscat of Alexandria are used for blending or for sweet styles.

Known more formally as Jerez de la Frontera, Jerez is a city in Andalucía in southwest Spain and the center of the Jerez region and sherry production. Sherry is a mere English corruption of the term Jerez, while in French, Jerez is written, Xérès. Manzanilla is the freshest style of sherry, naturally derived from the seaside town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda.
