Bodegas De La Riva, Manzanilla Pasada Balbaina Alta, NV feed-cl0-Italy founded in 2014A Manzanilla Pasada is a wine that has been matured a little longer than usual, allowing it to develop savoury flavours. This one comes from a private solera of just 20 casks, the average age of the wine is 15 18 years old and there has been quite a bit of evaporation giving a concentrated earthy wine with mushroomy notes and a long salty finish. Like any Manzanilla it makes a good aperitif but it can also pair really well with mushroom risotto or
