Williams & Humbert Alegria Manzanilla
Williams & Humbert Alegria Manzanilla is an excellent Manzanilla sherry produced by Bodegas Williams & Humbert, a renowned sherry producer from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Manzanilla is a type of Fino sherry produced in the town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, on the Andalusian coast.
This sherry takes its name from the Spanish word "alegría," meaning "joy," and the name reflects the joy and vibrancy this refreshing sherry can bring.
Like other Fino sherries, Manzanilla matures under a layer of yeast called "flor," which protects the sherry from oxidation and contributes to its floral and delicate character. What sets Manzanilla apart from other Fino sherries is that it is produced in the unique microclimatic conditions of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, where the influence of the sea is evident. As a result, Manzanilla develops a very specific salty and fresh taste, which is considered to be the sea breeze in a glass.
Williams & Humbert Alegria Manzanilla has a pale yellow color and offers a refined and complex aromas of floral notes, almonds and salty nuances.
