Bodegas Barbadillo was founded in 1821 in Sanlúcar de Barrameda. For two hundred years the family has been devoted to making quality wine with respect for tradition and a passion for innovation. This enduring commitment has earned Barbadillo its place as the foremost specialist in all sherry styles. With their origins in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, we are excited to introduce their range of exceptional Manzanillas. Their innovative approach is the future of this region, evolving and creating new styles to suit every palate. In their seventh generation of wine production the family are still looking at the future.
Winemaking >
‘ÁS de Mirabrás’ is a white wine resulting from a two year project that sought to identify
and select old Palomino vines set on Albariza soils that Barbadillo has traditionally
used over the years. The vines were selected for the quality and typicity that only old
vines could achieve for the Palomino grape. The selection of the plots has depended
also on the quality of the soils, and those selected are situated in the highest quality
‘pagos’: Miraflores, Añina, Macharnudo, Campix and Santa Lucía.
The must has been fermented in stainless steel tanks, where it also rests after the
harvest to clarify naturally. After a short time it is bottled in a ‘Jerezana’ bottle, the type
traditionally used in the region.
"The vines were selected for the quality and typicity that only old
