ARBOLEDILLA PONIENTE
ARBOLEDILLA (Poniente/Levante) is aimed at wine lovers in general, but above all, at those who seek to immerse themselves in the essence of the veil of flor.
Good connoisseurs of Manzanilla will appreciate all the nuances present in these two Manzanillas, which make them the best way to enter the “temple of Manzanilla”, which smells like a cathedral and everyone in Barbadillo calls “Arboledilla”.

THAT SMELL LIKE A CATHEDRAL
The organoleptic differences between the two proposals are subtle, but easily perceptible. The wines can be enjoyed separately or in a comparative tasting.
Arboledilla Poniente comes from a set of barrels inside the winery oriented towards the “Poniente”, or westerly wind. In Sanlúcar, the “Poniente” wind comes from the sea.
