Morenita Cream - Emilio Hidalgo
The Morenita Cream from Emilio Hidalgo is a wonderfully sweet sherry from the Palominon (70%) and Pedro Ximénez (30%) grape varieties.
The glass reveals an intense amber colour with golden shimmer. A clean delicate bouquet with hints of caramel, dried fruit, nutty notes and mocha enriches the nose. Soft and elegant, this Sherry is a delight to the palate with a well-balanced sweetness and a slightly refreshing taste. The finish has a pleasant length.
Vinification of Hidalgo Morenita Cream
The hand-picked grapes are destemmed, gently pressed and the resulting must fermented at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks. The young wine is then drawn off, sprinkled on and aged in American oak barrels.
Once the wine has matured without yeast flor, it is transferred to the traditional Solera system, in which the same type of sherry is matured in barrels arranged one above the other. In the lower barrels (Solera) the oldest wines are stored, while in the upper rows (Criaderas) the youngest wines are stored. The sherry intended for sale is always taken from the lower barrels. However, only a small part (a maximum of one third) is removed and the part removed is then filled with sherry from the upper rows. The whole principle is continued up to the top barrels, where the young wine, the must, is added to the sherry. The oloroso produced under oxidative influence is then mixed with a naturally sweet wine.
