Winemaker Notes

#30 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2017

The color is a lemon golden yellow. It is clear and fresh on the nose, with aromas indicating a very good biological aging, crystallized fruit, wild and floral notes, dried fruit, and almond. On the palate it is light, tasty, enveloping, fresh and persistent. A pale and delicate style of sherry with a salty tang from the sea.

    Unique aromas of dried apples, lemon blossom, almonds and cream. Hints of seaweed. Full-bodied, yet focused and tight with lively acidity and a beautifully composed finish of fruit and flavor. Always a winner here. Screw cap.

    COMMENTARY: The Hijos de Rainera Perez Marin Manzanilla La Guita is focused and expressive. TASTING NOTES: This offers aromas and flavors of brine, saltiness, slight nuttiness, and earthiness. Serve it with grilled oysters. (Tasted: November 23, 2022, San Francisco, CA)
  • 91
    Distinctive, with verbena and tarragon notes leading the way, followed by lemon pith and jicama flavors. Flashes of gooseberry and talc run through the finish. Bottled June 2016.

    As usual, La Guita is one of the best values in Spain. For a ridiculous price, you can get all the sun of Sanlúcar, saline aromas of the sea and notes of apricot and walnuts in a refreshing and vital Manzanilla, ready for fried anchovies.

    The NV La Guita Manzanilla has always had a very strong and marked character of brine, green olives and mustard seeds, with an overall sweet sensation. The medium-bodied palate is precise, very dry and intense, with some brine and rancio flavors and great length. The quality of this wine has increased notably in the last few years, and represents very good value and is a great introduction to Manzanilla, as availability should not be a problem with 2,000,000 bottles filled per year.

Hijos de Rainera Perez Marin, Spain
The brand name LA GUITA comes from the fact that the founder always asked those interested in buying it: “Do you have guita? “Guita” being an old Spanish slang word for money, in addition to meaning cord. And so, people began to call the winery by the name of "La Guita”. Later on, to strengthen the brand name, a piece of cord was added to the bottle. The LA GUITA brand has been registered since 1908. In 1917, the company changed its name to “Rainera Pérez Marín” and in 1928 to “Hijos de Rainera Pérez Marín”, the name which it still maintains today.

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.
