These 500-liter Manzanilla sherry barrels stand for freshness, maritime elegance, and an exceptionally fine, dry barrel influence. While closely related to the Fino style, Manzanilla has its own clearly defined character. It is produced exclusively in the bodegas of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, where the unique Atlantic coastal microclimate plays a decisive role in its maturation.
Like Fino, Manzanilla is aged entirely through biological maturation under a protective layer of flor yeast. Due to the consistently high humidity and proximity to the sea, the sherry develops a particularly fresh, floral, and subtly saline aromatic profile - characteristics that become deeply embedded in the barrel wood. The Palomino grape variety provides clarity, precision, and structural balance.
These 500-liter barrels made from American oak display an elegant, finely structured profile. Typical aromas include floral notes, fresh herbs, almonds, and a dry, precise spiciness with a subtle maritime character. The large barrel volume allows for slow, even aroma transfer, making these casks ideal for controlled, longer aging periods.
These Manzanilla sherry barrels are perfectly suited for the storage and maturation of a wide range of spirits such as whisky, rum, and brandy. Barrel-aged beers and ciders also benefit from the fresh dryness, floral lightness, and clean barrel structure these casks impart to the aging product. They are particularly well suited for aging concepts where elegance, freshness, and precision are paramount.
The barrels are carefully selected and supplied in excellent condition by our exclusive partner Casknolia, according to customer requirements. Provenance, condition, and sensory performance meet the highest professional standards.
These 500-liter Manzanilla sherry barrels from Sanlúcar de Barrameda are the ideal choice for producers seeking a dry, floral, and maritime-influenced sherry cask with versatile applications for spirits, beers, and cider - refined, precise, and unmistakably distinctive.
