Produced in Sanlúcar de Barrameda by Delgado Zuleta—one of Spain’s oldest Sherry houses—La Goya is a classic Manzanilla, aged under a protective veil of flor yeast in coastal cellars. The solera system allows for complexity while retaining freshness, with wines matured in American oak casks exposed to Atlantic breezes. The result is a uniquely delicate, saline Sherry that captures the essence of its seaside terroir.
Bouquet Fresh and lifted, the nose offers green apple, chamomile, almonds, and subtle notes of sourdough and sea spray. A touch of fennel and white flowers lingers in the background, giving it both clarity and complexity.
Palate Bone dry and feather-light, the palate is taut and briny with hints of lemon zest, toasted nuts, and a gently savoury yeasty undertone. A clean, razor-sharp finish carries a whisper of salt and bitter almond, making it as refreshing as a dip in the ocean.
Food Pairing A perfect match for seafood—think freshly shucked oysters, anchovies, or salt-cured fish. Try it with marinated olives, almonds, or a classic Spanish tortilla. For something more adventurous, pair with sushi, sashimi, or gazpacho.
