It displays a dark mahogany colour and an explosive nose of raisins, sugar cane, dates, candied oranges and spices (curry and clove). The palate shows a very dense wine, sweet but fresh showing some noble oxidation.

Producer Information

Equipo Navazos is a well-regarded Spanish private enterprise known for its single-cask bottlings of Sherries and wines predominantly from wineries in Jerez and Manzanilla regions of Andalucia. Its generally one-off bottlings, called botas, are accompanied by a chronologically allocated number and the location and/or name of the winery. The group also produces a number of wines and spirits by itself or in collaboration with other producers. The concept was formulated in the early 2000s when Sherry aficionados Jesús Barquín and Eduardo Ojeda came across a series of forgotten barrels (botas, in Spanish) of 20 year-old Amontillado in the cellars of Sánchez Ayala in Sanlúcar de Barrameda. Banding together with friends and wine trade insiders, they bottled a first run of the wine (labeled La Bota de Amontillado N°1) in 2005, distributing it back to their supporters. The enterprise and name grew from there. The bota series has since passed the 100-mark and includes sherries of all hues, covering PX, Palo Cortado, Oloroso, Fino and Manzanilla and Manzanilla Pasada wines. Other special-run botas include Gin, malt and grain whiskies, cream sherry, rum, and brandy. The group has also expanded with other labels, including the I Think series, which covers the freshly-drawn En Rama wines (a youthful expression of Fino/Manzanilla, generally unfined and unfiltered). The I Think Manzanilla bottlings are often accompanied by the month and year they were taken from cask.
